I've never gotten the hang of figuring this it and I'm hoping someone on here can help me figure it out.

If I'm burning 400 calories a day at the gym, how many calories should I be eating in a day to make sure I'm still going to lose and not go into starvation mode because I'm not getting enough.

I've kind of hit another stall..weight loss has really slowed down. I'm a little over 8 months out. I changed up my work out routine, something I do when I hit a stall. I'm really loving what I changed it to but I'm burning alot more calories now.

Good question.... I was wondering the same thing .

I've been wondering about this, too.

I log my exercise into My Fitness Pal, but I never count it toward my available calories for the day (I usually log it at the end of the day so that it doesn't get confusing).

If all I did for exercise in the day is take my dogs on a 20-minute walk, that's one thing. But yesterday, for example, I took a Water aerobics class and an aqua toning class back to back. I definitely felt hungrier afterwards, and ended up going over my 800-calorie limit by 20 calories because I had a Quest bar in the evening. But if I did 1 hour and 45 minutes of working out, is that OK? I know I wouldn't even physically be able to eat the entire 485 calories worth of food that MFP says I burned (that's another thing entirely--I think it really overestimates how many calories you burn).

This is a good question for your NUT. I track my exercise in MyFitnessPal but don't eat back those calories.
