How to Exclude Additional Exercise Calories?

Is there really no way to have Calories Remaining not include additional calories from exercise? I just switched to using a TDEE calculator (thank god and thanks to this group!), so I don't want my calories remaining to be increased by the calories burned exercising. Since I really am not into doing this math manually or in my head, it seems like the only other solution is to not record my calories burned by exercise. Am I missing something?

    I change the calories burned when logging my exercise to 1. That way I still log my exercise, but only have the 1 calorie in the math.

    pretty smart solution. I wish MFP would just allow this functionality; it is actually the only thing I dont like about MFP as compared to other online calorie trackers.
