I’ve been on the 800 for a week now and I’ve just started using My Fitness Pal to track my progress. Their status shows NETT calorie intake / day … Allowable (800) + Food – Exercise

Am I allowed 800 gross or Nett calories ?

Gross I’m afraid, It’s 800 no matter how much you exercise but look at it this way.
The whole point is to lose weight fast so If you exercise and burn calories, the weight should go faster.
Unfortunately, apps don’t understand the concept of the Fast 800.
