Yes I do
Yes I am. I am so close to goal that things move very slowly but since I bump my calories to 1350 instead of 1200 plus most of my exercice calories, the weight is going down again. And I am only 5' tall.0 -
No.
Yes.0 -
1. Yes.... not usually all of them unless I feel like I need them.
2. Yes. Reached goal and maintaining steady... still eating them back! (avg. about 1600 - 2100 cals a day)0 -
1. No (sometimes I do use some, but maybe a couple times a week)
2. Yes (I've consistantly lost in the past 8 weeks since starting (27.6lbs and counting...))0 -
1. No-ish. When I get back from an evening hike, it's usually 9/10:00, so I generally don't eat more (or at least not much more) than if I was at home (especially since there's the temptation to boredom snack if I was home). Depends how hungry I am. I also don't like to eat a lot before going to bed. My setting for net calories assumes 400 cal. of exercise (set it to 900 instead of 1300) anyway, so I normally don't have a lot of extra calories to work with on the weekdays. On weekends I'm exposed to more junk food (at places away from home during meals), so I probably do eat a lot of them back (though I don't make a point to - I'd rather take the bonus calorie deficit if not hungry or tempted).
2. I've lost a few pounds (was previously at 156 and very slowly climbing). Down to 152.0 -
Yes I eat back and yes I lose weight pretty much consistently.0

Does anybody want to do an analysis and see if there's any correlation between how people answered and where their ticker is?0

That sounds like work.
I avoid work.0 -
I was eating my exercise calories and lost nothing for over a month.
This week I decided to try a slight zigzag to see what happens: eat straight calories M-F, and on the weekends eat exercise calories.0 -

Me too.. which is why I think someone other than myself ought to do it.0 -
Nope I normally don't eat them back, periodically I will... I lose weight consistantly as long as long as I follow my 1220 calorie goal, if I binge on day, it takes me a week to get back to my current weight.0
