:confused:
iv'e been searching throughout the forum, but i'd like to make sure i have this right.
According to fitday.com. my basil +lifestyle calories burned is 2335. I want to lose 1.2 pounds per week. Am i right by saying i need to intake 1868 calories per day?(if i don't exercise) and more if i do exercise.
Currently I'm trying a 40/40/20 split diet.

as long as you did sedentary life style on fitday.com then you can add in your training.

you also have to account for net calories burned. meaning if you rode for 1 hour and burned 700 calories minus what you would have burned just sitting on your couch (2335/24= around 100). so you really burned 600 in accordance with you fitday total.
