help starting training tomorrow

I have hired a personal trainer to help me with my exercise. I know we are suppose to increase our calorie intake when we work out but I don't know by how much? Or what to say to increase it

I'm 9wks post op and eat about 500-700 calories a day . I'm estimating to work out about 1 to 1.5 hrs a day burning about 300-700 calories will my body be able to handle it ? Please help me

Nothing scientific here, just sharing my experience. Weight training makes me hungrier so I usually eat about 150-200 calories extra on heavy exertion days. I try not to eat back all of my exercise calories since I am not at goal. I also up my water on those days too.

Awesome that gives me an idea

I didn't know if the body thinks it's starving if it runs on 300calories after exercise
