I usually exercise daily and burn 300ish calories doing so. Because of this, I eat 1,500 calories each day.
Today I was so tired and decided to not workout for once. Should I eat 1,200 calories then?
I've eaten 1,200 so far and I still feel hungry. Is it bad to eat the usual 1,500 though because I missed a workout?
Sorry if this is a dumb question, I just get confused about these kinds of things sometimes. Thanks for the help, though!

If your mfp goal is 1200 and you usually add 300 exercise calories then eat 1200. If your mfp goal is 1500 then eat 1500.0
