    Quick Q HDK.
    Do you consume your exercise calories on MFP?

    Thanks FD, definitely worth exploring. As Dave very keen to do something.

    Yes alchemilla, I do. Especially Fri-Sun. I try and adjust them though before entering as I think mfp is too generous for my classes, as I don't want to eat more than allowed. A lot of forums say eat back half to avoid this. I have started to mentally think of my 1200 as meals and extra calories earned as paying for the little extras, not sure if this is a good way of thinking about it but I do feel I need to earn if want more. Some days though you just feel hungry and I don't do hungry.

    Dd 3 12 today, so we had tea out (hungry horse) and just nipped for quick zumba, 45 mins, now eaten very calorific birthday cake so good job I went.

    Interesting day, coroner gave a talk on her role as part of a study day, which was really good.
