How do you account for exercise calories while in a calorie deficit?
I’m aiming for around 1,220 kcal/day to lose weight. If I eat 1,220 but burn additional calories through exercise, should I eat some of those calories back?
I’m trying to make sure I stay in a healthy deficit zone rather than accidentally going into a "starvation zone," which I understand can contribute to things like muscle loss, hair loss, feeling cold a lot, poor sleep, constipation, etc.
Do you eat back exercise calories, eat back a percentage, or ignore them?
