My current calorie intake limit is about 1900 calories. I've been trying to stay within the 1200-1600 calorie limit per day though. I exercise everyday, about 1 hour of cardio and 30 minutes of weight lifting. Today I ate about 1900 calories and did 1 hour cardio, stationary cycling, roughly 600-900 calories burnt. I was wondering if exercise basically counts to eating less that day or are they calories of fat that are already there? How does calorie burning work exactly?

Hoping to drop 80 pounds within a year, hoping to start off at about 10 pounds a month. Thanks for any help! :D
