View POZ6778's food & exercise for this day

I am confused about the calorie target after you exercise. I exercise in the evening (after dinner). I eat to meet my target the entire day and after I exercise it tells me I need to eat to replace what I have burned while exercising.

I have tried to eat something to help make up some of the calories but when I do, then it tells me that I have too much fat or carbs (or both)? I know I can change the targets for these but if I exercise at different increments every day, does this mean I need to change my targets for these everyday? This will be too much for me to log....any suggestions???

Thanks

:hi: I don't eat back my exercise calories, so I know I can't help here. What I do, do is I change all my exercises to 0 calories burned, that way I don't have to worry about eating them back. Everyone does things differently, so I'm sure that someone else around here will be able to help you. Hope you are having a great day. :)

That's a great question, Rachel. I'm a little confused about that myself, so I will be interesting in reading the answer. I am also confused in that under my profile, it says that I've met my calorie goals on days when I actually didn't. I'm wondering if that's because I log my foods throughout the day instead of doing it all at once. Maybe there are some CalorieKing pros who will have the answers.
