    you will lose more bodyweight in the next few weeks if you go on likethat . after a few weeks you will stuck with losing weight. thats because of the bodys save system for nutrients. so in the end its the famous jojo effect . but it wont have a big effect if you do what you explained a few days in a month ....

    Depends how accurate the estimate of your exercise calories is.

    Not sure? As for me, I pretty much never eat any back and I've been on a steady decline since January.

    When you join MFP you are given a calorie deficit that will enable you to lose weight, even if you eat back all the exercise calories you earn, you will still have a deficit, so you can if you want to.
    I don't always eat all my exercise calories back, but i make sure i take in at least 1200 calories a day, even after exercise.
