    i do 3000 calories of cardio a week and find it hard to eat only 2k. I started counting my calories about half a year ago and I was eating 3k/day. I cut it down to 2k and tried to make better diet choices and lost about 30 lbs, but I’m really fricking hungry all the time due to how much I exercise. xok

      Can relate. For a period I was always at a caloric deficit due to having to bike to work in addition to running 10 miles or so every other day. Running injuries and finally being able to afford a car but a cabash on that.
