According to some members it seems exercise calories can be a bit off so I would advise not to eat all your exercise calories. I eat some of mine but not all. That way u have a bit of a safety net too for those days when u just go a bit over. ( Hey I am not perfect lol). Good luck ! :)

I also use tinned black eye beans instead of the black beans. I also use canned sweetcorn. Finally zero cooking involved just a…
