My daily calorie intake budget is now 1,600 as I’ve lost 5.5 pounds from August 5 until now, and I’m still a bit confused about what it means for the section for food calories versus the net calories.
I understand that the exercise portion is what is being recorded by my Apple Watch and is being taken away from what I’ve eaten in a day, so essentially my daily budget goes down depending on how much exercise I’ve done. I go to the gym 5 times a week, 3 or 4 depending if my old back injury is being feisty lol. I’m on the plan of losing about 1 and a half pounds a week. My total weekly calorie under the calorie budget usually is almost 5points away from being 5000 calories for the whole week, which roughly rounds up to about a pound and a half of weight loss?
What does the net mean? Is it supposed to be higher than my actual food intake? Today my exercise caloric was low as it’s a rest day as well as I increased my carbs today being that I have been on a strict diet until recently. Budget: 1600, food: 1425, exercise-248 even though Apple Watch says 630, net : 1,177, under 423 under 1,674 weekly budget.
