If you are given 1200 calories and you earn say 400 from exercise, but don't eat those exercise calories, then you would be at a net of 800. Thus, you want to eat your 1200 and at least a portion of said exercise calories.

Your net at the end of the day should equal your goal. You are either under eating or over estimating your exercise calories, or both if you are at a negative net.
