Exercise can help burn more calories but you can quickly negate the benefits by eating too much after the workout. We (my wife and I)use software that tracks our calorie consumption on a daily basis to see where we are at. It helps tremendously. Just the act of logging what you eat helps you become more aware of what, and how you are eating. Then, when you exercise, you know what you can eat after the workout to help you recover without losing all of the benefits.

I eat MORE on heavy workout days. But I eat LESS on light or rest days. As long as you are staying in an overall calorie deficit for the week, fat loss will happen. That said, when I eat more it's not junk... it's high quality lean proteins, veggies, fruit and maybe some whole grains, legumes or starchy veggies.
