I'm just starting out and I have a question about calories. Right now my main goal is to get used to healthy portion sizes so I am trying to fall between 1300-1500 calories eaten a day. I'm eating a lot of plant based foods and whole foods and lean proteins. I'm 5'6" and 230lbs.
That said I have been exercising more this time around. I kayaked for 2 hours yesterday and went for a 45 minute brisk walk/jog.....given how over weight I am do I need to increase my food intake when I exercise more? I feel really hungry and I'm a couple hundred calories from being over my limit. I'm having a hard time with this because I know I'm not like an athlete so odds are I'm not working out as hard as some people so how do I calculate calories burned via activity? Do I just ignore the exercise calories for now?
