How many calories do you need to eat to maintain 800 pounds?
That depends on how many calories the person in question's body requires to stay alive, or their BMR (basal metabolic rate) which depends on age, sex and weight. If they need 3000 calories, they will need to eat 3000 calories to maintain their weight. If they need 4000 calories, they need 4000 calories to maintain their weight. In addition, if they eat more than their BMR, they will gain weight, if they eat less, they will lose weight. In theory, you can have 2 totally different people who weight 800 pounds, BUT they each require different amounts of calories to maintain their 800 pounds.

When exercising does your body require more calories than normal?
When exercising, your body requires more calories than normal. If you burn 600 calories in a cardio session at the gym, your body is missing the 600 calories it is accustomed to taking in. If you are gaining muscle, your body is burning 35-50 calories more per pound of muscle you have gained, and you'll feel hungrier. A great thing to do would be to find a calorie calculator online, input your height, weight, age, and frequency of exercise, and it will tell you your maintenance calories (which are the calories needed to maintain your current physique, obviously). If you are looking to lose weight, eat less than this. If you are looking to gain, eat more.
