What does everyone do with their earned exercise calories? Do you eat them?

@KT4everFree I really can't recommend eating back those calories. One big reason why I don't is that they're estimates and are generally very over estimated and if you eat them back, you will likely over eat because of the over estimation. And I look at it as a bonus, anything you burn over what you planned to is just less fat on your body...which is really the goal anyway.

I have written this response and re-written it 3 times now, trying not to give too much information on a somewhat simple question.
The bottom line is that for the first 2.75 years of my journey I did not pay any attention to those exercise calories, but now I am looking at them a bit differently because of my current situation so for most people what I am currently worried about won't apply since I am a competitive weightlifter and fuel for my body matters and my weight also matters.

Thanks, I don’t eat them. I was just curious what everyone else did. I’ve been using th MYZONE when I exercise to see my heart rate and effort level as well as calories burned.

Thanks for the info

Comments besides my Kettlebell Workout I was on my feet straight for 9 hours. I was helping my nephew sell his ebikes at an RV show.

@AB0215 thank you! Ya I think I need to start journaling I think that would help. Also with the overtime issues it's alot easier to buy some ramen then to stick with keto. It was a bunch of things all at once and I lost it. But funny thing is I haven't felt as good as I have then when I was on keto. I had so much energy on keto and now I can barley get through the day. I'm starting keto again monday. Also yes running use to make me feel so much better but I'm a heavey smoker and get horrible him splints Everytime I start running. I literally just invested 120 in a new vape to try and stop smoking! Only bought 3mg nicotine juice so I can try to stop with the Mony save on smoking ( around 50 or more a week) I want to put twords keto! I'm trying I know my biggest obstacle is me and I'm standing in my own way! It's so hard to change how u think! But I want this I really do! I've literally been having nightmares where I get really fat lol. It's hard to understand how I'm a control freak and the one thing I could have actual control over is the one thing I feel I have no control over. I'm tired of beating myself up all the time and tired of feeling like I'm nothing if I'm not thin. I think I have a really messed up idea of what my worth is in this life. I honestly feel that the thinner and better looking you are the more worth you have and that's not what I believe but that's how I see life and I wanna change that. I wanna be healthy and happy and have energy. I hate that I feel I got the bad genes in my family I'm the biggest one and I feel nothing but jealousy when I'm around my siblings and see the thin and beautiful and I start to have anger twords them for it. It's not fair to them it's not right and I know it's a problem with me not them. I just can't help but to see them and feel like I'm not worth as much cause they a look better then me. It's hard to cause I come from a family of addicts and I'm the only one that's not so I get this chip on my shoulder of " oh well you wouldn't look like that if it wasn't for the meth" i know that's wrong of me but I feel like I try so hard to do everything and everything just seems to happen for them through other people and then I feel like the only reason that is is because they are thin and beautiful. I know sharing l this may make me seem like a bad person but I'm not ifs just something I struggle with and maybe by sharing it on here maybe people can relate or share how they over came that. I just want this year to be me at my most honest point. I'm so full of love and compassion but I feel like I'm not worth as much as someone who has a smaller Jean size as me. I recognize that it's an issue with me and I want to change. I'm looking into therapy but not sure I can afford it. All I know is I want to do better and be better and bring more into this world and it starts with me.
