Yeah, you might eat more and there will be water issues as well.
My main advice is eat clean and healthy. Not cr@p. If you are reaching for the processed carbs (sodas, chips, candy, bread, ice cream) then you are potentially on a slippery slope. But if you eat lots of healthy stuff then that should both fuel your exercise and help keep your weight loss goals on track, or at least steady.
Here are some of the foods I eat and I work out a lot:
Fish, oats (used to), dried fruits (prunes, apricots, dates, figs, cranberries), nuts (almonds, walnuts), bananas, a little very dark chocolate, eggs, kale, spring greens, kim chi, feta cheese, guacamole, onion, olives, dried tomatoes, garlic.
So, there is some high calorie stuff in there, lots of protein and some carbs too but all healthy stuff that doesn't spike my blood sugar too much and doesn't seem to go on as fat.
