Do you eat your exercise calories???

I eat back as many as I can without having that stuffed all day feeling. I also feel better when I eat them back not so tired.

Yes I eat some of them back, as others on here have said I do not trust the burn rate. (I use an ARC trainer at the gym a lot, and there are times that machine will tell me that I have burned 1100 calories in 45 minutes. I feel like that is a bit extreme and have a hard time believing that I have burned that many calories.)
That being said my BMR is 1435, my TDEE is 1722 (http://www.quickbmr.com/what-is-tdee.html#) I set my TDEE at sedentary as I have a desk job and I sit most of the day I also have a long commute and so I end up sitting during my drive too. MFP has my goal set at 1200 per day, which is a 522 daily choleric deficit. Now let’s say I exercise and burn 500 calories and I log that on MFP. The system adjusts automatically and puts me at 1700 calories that I can consume to net out at the 1200 but because the 500 calories extra I eat nets with the exercise, it is still a 522 calorie a day deficit. If I hit that deficit every day I should lose 1 lb per week based on a deficit of 500 calories x7 days per week = 3500. (You have to create a 3,500 calorie deficit to lose one pound.) On days I exercise I try to leave a couple hundred calories on the board, if I don’t exercise then I try to be really close to my allotted 1200. Which actually motivates me to work out, because I LOVE to eat, LOL if I didn’t love it I would need to be on this site in the first place…

I am new to this form of tracking but did WW for quite some time. My thought from looking at this program is that calories already take into account how much I want to lose with no exercise, so if I do exercise and burn the calories that I have eaten my body will eventually go into starvation mode if I don't consume more. It may aid me in losing weight right now but I am looking at the long term, so while I don't believe you have to eat them all dipping into them sometimes may be better for you then avoiding them completely especially if you are doing intense workouts burning a lot of calories.

I cant remember the last time I ate back my exercise calories, even on my off days when I do Insanity.

Yes. And I search before I post.

I don't get what the point of your rudeness is. If you don't want to answer her question because it has already posted somewhere else then just dont respond. We are all here to be positive to one another & look for support. I doubt your answer was encouraging at all.
