Cliffs- if you dine out or purchase locally made prepared foods, the calories aren't always what they seem to be on their labels.

I think that's why it's good to only eat half of your exercise calories. Ya never know when the calorie count can vary and I suspect for those who put in the work and still don't lose weight, this could contribute. That one sammich was double the calories! Crazy0 -

And this is why I avoid eating all my exercise calories. I like to give myself a "safety net".0
