I replied on a post but saw that was this am so thought I would ask on a new topic.
Im not sure if Im doign this right after reading some posts about eating your excercise cals back.
I enter all the food im going to eat for the day and the workout im goign to do at night to see how many cals ill burn and throughout the day i eat all those calories.
So mainly i eat all my calories and my workout cals throught the day before I even workout.
Is this ok to do? I work out anywhere starting at 6pm or 730 pm and dont want to eat a lot after. I do although have my protien shake right after my workout which i have already put on my food diary for that day so that already accounted for.
Hope that makes sense
Please help and let me know if this is wrong
Thanks yall

I do it that way too. I workout in the evenings usually, so I'm not going to wait and then eat back 3-600 cals at night, that wouldn't ork at all for me.0

Nope, you're good. The only danger is that if you eat all your food and then don't do the exercise. But you sound like that's not an issue for you0

this is me!! I never log exercise ahead of time, cuz psychlogically i feel trapped. If i log it afterwards then I get a bonus of extra calories I get to have at dinnertime! but if I worked out after dinner that wouldn't work-:flowerforyou:0 -
