    Exercise must be fed if you want the body to get stronger, which is usually the reason for exercise.

    This is a great quote and bears repeating... so I will!

    Love this!!!I So true!

    I am eating calories earned on the days I do Zumba or Yoga (2 days/week usually). On the days I do Crossfit (3 days/week) I am not eating the calories earned there. The reason is that I couldn't decide between losing 1 lb/week or 2 lb/week. the calorie limit for 2/week was too limiting for me and I feel like the 1/week is a little too many. So.. this is my happy medium. Make sense ?

    I eat mine if I'm hungry or want a extra treat. If I'm not really hungry I don't. I just go with the flow. I just started and already seeing results:)

    Depends on what I have eaten that day if I eat them back or not. I had stirfry veggies tonight with a fruit and yogurt smoothie and my belly is so bloated. I still have calories to eat tonight but seriously doubt if it happens!

    Sounds good to me. I naturally did this cus i knew nothing about eating calories back.
    I never eat my calories back unless I know I'm going to be in a situation where I will definitely be going over my calories. Normally I consider my exercise calories, bonus calories for my body and I'm never hungry at the end of the day so I never feel the need to eat them. I just make sure whatever I'm eating is low in calories so I can eat more of it and not tap into my "savings" of calories. So far I have had amazing results and I have lost over 70 lbs so I'm going to just keep doing what I'm doing :)
