So...based on all the comments, I'm going to consume 1/2 of my exercise calories and up my base to 1200. We'll see how this next week goes.

Interesting commentary, http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/818082-exercise-calories-again-wtf, RGv2. Thanks for sharing.

All my exercise paid off...it was better than I'd expected!! Keep it Simple Goals for today: Record my food, drink water, exercise, and stop eating…

Realistic Expectations...something I need to work on. It's definitely not the best time to start "the new diet/exercise plan" just before the holiday weekend when your son is coming home on leave.
