Alternating between stationary bike, elliptical, treadmill (running 5-6mph)

I understand why eating back theoretically means it is the same, but in reality having extra 400 calories (cardio over weights) to eat makes it significantly easier, at least for me. Excuse my newbie ignorance - what do "CV fitness goals" mean?

If you do log, how would you go about it? It is so complicated to figure out the nutritional value of outside food... at home it feels like having a rough estimate of a meal a couple of times a week is ok, but when on vacation, it feels that my estimate for a day can easily be 1.5X-2X wrong.

Got it. Though I do have to say, that sticking to MFP calorie goal is much easier in my cardio days...

Very interesting feedback, thanks! I would think that for weight loss, the balance should be more cardio than weights, but seems that everyone is suggesting weights first, and fill the remaining time with cardio. Why is that?

Thanks for your response. I have tried squeezing in more exercise but it doesn't work for me at this point. I'm also aware that nutrition is the more significant part and I feel I'm covered on that front. I'm mostly looking for advice on how to split 3 50-min mid-week gym visits between weights and cardio.
