Reply to comment by Freedom-No-781 in ELI5 - When losing weight, why is it common to hear "burn more than you consume" in reference to calorie intake. if you consume" 1000 calories, how do you burn 1500? by Freedom-No-781
You continue to burn more calories than resting AFTER you stopped working out so that's something to consider for your calculations.
Also, putting on muscles means your resting calorie count go up too.
