Ok So my gaol calories does that include my exercise or should it be straight eating to around goal plus exercise for a deficit?

    No your goal just accounts for activity level, until you log exercise.

    MFP will give you additional calories for exercise. Many users eat back 50-75% because calorie burn estimates are generous. This ideally gets you back to the same starting place.
