I have my zig zag all figured out but 1 question.....do I want to NET whatevre I set for the day? meaning that if I burn off 500 calories working out I would want to eat back that 500 calories to make sure I NET what I set? For today I am eatting 1661 calories, I will work out and burn 400 calories....1661-400= 1261 calories do I eat back the 400 to bring it back to 1661? THANK YOU!!
