I'm new to the IIFYM concept. I've done the reading, however, I want to be sure I'm understanding this clearly. Your maintenance calories (according to the IIFYM sites calculator) have already factored in your exercise for the day? Therefore you aren't eating anything back.

    Yes :)
  • I've just put 1 calorie burned in for all my workouts! lol; So I'm not confused. I was half doing IIFYM when I first started cause my workout calories were confusing me. Just feels weird knowing I burned 500 calories and can't post it but that's more of an ego thing. I'm still tracking my calories burned tho with my polor fitness watch app.
