I'm not sure how much I burned on strength training so I can't be completely accurate about cals burned today.
I'm not sure about deficits or whether exercise cancels out calories eaten but all in all I think I've done pretty well today, it's just what I need after such a bad week!
Also I found this article on Shape Magazine's website which I think is brilliant, especially as you should all know by now I'm a bit of an alcoholic, i.e. British, which gives you great recipes for low calorie cocktails .
I'm alcoholic too...it's great. Hahaha, not really, but booze is seriously cheap in the US. :P
ReplyDeleteExercise can cancel out calories. It just depends on how you want to do your count. Some people don't count it against their intake and others do. I track exercise but I go by actual food eaten. I feel if I up my intake by my amount of exercise it won't be as effective. Good luck!! And hooray for low cal cocktails.
ReplyDeleteThey have "skinny" alcoholic beverages at Applebees - and they taste really good!
ReplyDeleteGreat intake - extremely healthy. :) And good strength training. Muscle constantly burns fat, so that's awesome!
wow I wish I could do what you can, you're really amazing.I absolutely looove Cocktails but it's so hard to find some with lower cals when you go out drinking cocktails.. the only thing I try to avoid is milk/cream in cocktails. tastes very good but way to fatty!
ReplyDeletegood luck with SGD(:
