    If you've exercised, you've basically burned more calories than you've eaten today. Everyone around here will suggest your net number to be around 1200, but I think it depends on the person. I do anywhere between 1100 and 1400 net. You should eat back those calories that you burned exercising, because MFP already creates a calorie deficit for you.

    You need to eat all your calories. When you exercise you are burning calories u will need to consume or your body will store fat. Do eat up. You will be surprised, that not eating enough causes weight gain.
