eating exercise calories

I cant see this anywhere but been reading the book and as long as you know the cals are accurate on DD you can eat back exercise cals if you want to

Can you? This is my first day and I'm kind of winging it. That's defo motivation to go for a run later

Which means you really need to record your exercise cals with an HRM to be sure you are accurate...so I think I'll not bother on DD's. I want the health benefits that come with the fasting side of it, so the more negative the calorie balance the better on a DD for me.

I don't eat back exercise cals, given that the calorie guidelines include an option to specify how much exercise you do. I want the health benefits of fasting as well as weight loss, so I stay at or under 500 cals on DDs. I have found I can exercise on DDs as I usually have enough energy in my system to keep me going. I have noticed though, that on an UD which follows a DD, I need to wait until later in the day to exercise or I just don't have enough energy, having been very low cal the day before.

I don't eat on downs, but I fast fully so it wouldn't be a good idea. I would say its probably not recommended that you do anything intense on a dd.

I wouldn't eat calories, because I also want the benefits of what a full fast does to your body. Cleans everything out, makes me feel like I'm making a good dent in my weight, and I just feel like I'm floating!

I have my DDs and ups set and gym routine fixed so that I'm going to the gym on a day that I am fuelled. I have 4 days a week available for the gym so that's more than enough for me xxx
