[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am using the lose it app and it has me at about 1300 per day. When I add in exercise, it brings my allotted calories up. When you are talking about 1500 calories a day, are you including exercise? In other words- is it "cheating" to allow myself 1600 calories if I run a few miles? God I hate getting old. But better than the alternative...I guess?[/quote] I don't count my exercise unless I really burn a lot of calories, like after a 10 mile run. But I also don't eat 1300 calories. I aim for 1600 and can lose at that if I am consistent and accurately tracking. I find that most women who think the can only lose on 1300 calories a day are most likely eating more calories than they think. It tends to be a cycle of under eating for a few days, eating more one day, restricting again and then eating more on weekends. So overall they are averaging out to eating more than those 1300 calories. [/quote]
