Hi everyone one! I am new here 36. Looking to lose about 46 lbs. I run 3-4 times a week as I am just getting back to running again and going to start training for my 3rd Half Marathon. When I entered my info my daily calories say 1200 per day to loose 2 lbs a week. What I don't understand it the NET calories. I'm not sure but I may be eating too little on my running days. I am trying to not eat the calories gained by exercising. Do I have to??? When I look at my net calorie info it shows a deficit? HELP please.

    Pretty sure that if you're going off of what MFP tells you you're supposed to eat the calories back since you're already in a deficit.
