So If I burned 626, and I have eaten 1005, and my allowance is 1500, how much more do I get to eat? 495 more? What do I do?:huh:

    Allowance and exercise: 1500+626= 2126

    Total calories allowed minus food eaten: 2126-1005= 1121

    Make sure you eat the full 1500 calories. Myfitnesspal will say that you CAN eat more than the 1500 if you burn extra calories exercising. However, I don't do that. I eat the 1550 that I am allocated. I don't throw on an any extra calories that I burn. Does that make sense?

    That's what I was thinking, and have been doing. Just hungry lol.
