Can someone explain? (net calories)

I don't really understand how the net calories work. My daily goal is 2,495/day. After a hard workout, this was my chart for yesterday:
Totals 2,363
Your Daily Goal 3,310
Remaining 947
My personal trainer had told me NOT to eat those extra calories I'm given for exercise.
