I've seen people say that they only burnt 1 calorie for their exercise, that way it is logged, but it doesnt subtract.0

I log my exercise but only put it as 1 calorie0

I don't log it on the exercise page - I leave a note in the food note stating what I have done: walk 20 minutes for 180 cals, weights.0

I've decided to wait til the end of the day to add my exercise instead of having to ignore the subtraction.0

why? MFP already gives you a calorie deficit. by exercising and not replenishing your body, you put your self into a very negative calorie range that has no benefits.0

Why don't you want it to subtract? You don't have to eat it...?
I'd just stick it in the notes x0 -

I have a set calorie goal for each day regardless of exercise. I just make sure I eat that goal each day but still add my exercise calories just to see them on there...Weird but that is the way I like it.0

Silly boy, don't you know that this is THE way to go....you know, to starve instead of fueling your body??0 -
