It is your total calories used for the day so far. Food - Exercise=net0

Sorry, technically it is Food + Excercise = Net
So for you (622 ) + (-868) = -2460 -
If you burned 868 calories from exercise, then you gain that many calories to eat since your calorie goal is already at a deficit. So you really are only consuming the NET amount, technically.0
