Neither...you need to be in a calorie deficit to lose weight. If you burn 1900 cals per day, and eat 1200 per day, you will lose 1lb per week0

You would want to NET 1200 Cals min per day! There are some stickys in the forums on this for newbies so if you haven't read them, its a good place to start to clear up any confusion you may have! :happy:0
