How much to eat if I exercise?

I really don't know how much I'm supposed to be eating.
My daily calorie goal is 1200. Today, i ate about 1214 calories, and did only about 120 calories worth of exercise. So I have remaining 106 calories. Should I eat that up?
When I clicked 'complete this entry' the 'you are eating too few calories' message popped up. I'm so confused. :ohwell:

Your body needs fuel. Eat to loose. Just make sure that you eat the clean foods.0 -
lol I have the same problem... On Sunday when I have my highest calories burned, I still eat less than 1200 or just over a little on that. I won't dare to eat more because I feel that I will gain weight just by breathing in air.0
