Hi guys,

Just thought I'd get your opinions on this, I don't eat back my exercise calories personally but wondered if I should be,

Thanks :)

    Looks like you're losing 2-2.5lbs every 5 days or so? Now that you're close to goal, I'd say, yeah, you might want to start eating some of them back.

    I eat back 1/2 to all of my exercise calories depending on how hungry I feel and still lose.
