    What are your goals? I exercise for functional fitness, strength and because it mass me feel good. Not to eat more. I eat to live, not live to eat.

    Yes, but when you don't consume more when you burn more calories, you're not eating to live. You need to fuel your workouts. Your workouts are part of your life. Eat to live.

    The science behind weight is that if you eat as many calories as you burn your weight stays the same. If you are working out you are burning more calories and that mean you can eat more. The beauty of Myfitness pal is that it will be able to do this for you automatically and takes the guess work out.
