    I don't eat all of them... Some days I don't eat any, some days some of them, and some days I'm over because of special occasions (out to dinner, party, whatever). I dont own a heart rate monitor so I'm not sure the actual burn I'm getting. I always assume its less than what MFP tells me.

    I snuggle with mine on the couch and we dream of going to Hungary.

    Most of the time, eating my exercise calories are WHY I work out. It looks like I'm in the minority though, at least for this post. I did, however, make it to my goal weight doing so. :)

    Nicely done! I'm with you there... I'm quite fond of food.

    I eat them back because eating them back means I kept more of my lean muscle mass. Keeping more of my lean muscle mass means I weigh more than I look like I weigh, which is far better than looking like I weigh more than I do. :smile:

    Plus, the more I eat, the happier I am. The happier I am, the more likely I am to stick to my goals.

    Thanks guys! I have decided I am going to plan better and eat some more calories earlier in the day so when I work out it is not as much to eat back:) Thanks for all the advice:)
