So I have the phone app MyFitnessPal. And it has calories eaten and net calories. Basically it takes how many actual calories you eat, subtracts the amount you exercise to equal "net calories".
Example:
I ate 1200 calories exactly. I exercised for an hour and burned 600 calories. Subtract the 600 exercised from the 1200. So I've netted 600 calories. So since my goal was 1200, I have a 600 calorie deficit.
My question is if my goal is 1200/day, but I exercise and burn some, should I eat a little more to make that deficit up, or just go with my original goal and ignore the "net" calories?
