Calories and Excercising?
Replies

MFP automatically adds in your exercise calories to to your daily calorie budget - because the site is telling you to eat these back in order to reach your goals.
Why do so many people resist? I just don't get it.
I say give it a try... if you don't like the results after a few weeks, then you can figure out how you may want to tweak it, but not following the MFP plan from the start doesn't make any sense. (unless you are knowledgable enough to set up your own custom plan).0 -
This is very interesting. I always thought that if you didn't eat back those exercise calories, you'd loose the weight faster! I feel like this would be difficult - I workout 4x a week and burn at least 700 calories. Just seems like alot of calories to eat back (without eating junk!). Any advice is appreciated!0

must say absolutely brilliant guides here - am struggling to get into the mentality that i need to "eat more" seems opposite of what i am trying to achieve.
I'm finding it difficult to eat my 1200 calories - find i'm quite (unusually) satisfied with what i'm eating and normally have about 500cals left over each day ( 1200 limit plus normally 700 from gym = 1900) but today for instance i have about 900 left - just not hungry - any advice?0 -
1600 per day0
