I am really confused

Say you consume 1200 calories earn 600 calories due to exercise but net only 600

Is that bad? Won't you go in starvation mode netting below that amount!

I need a break down bad

    yeah if you are following MFP calories you should be Netting what ever is recommended for you.

    If your settings on MFP have you at 1,200 cals a day, your net should be 1,200 cals a day, regardless of how much exercise you do.

    If you do a search on MFP there are loads of useful posts that may explain it a lot better than I can :smile:

    On some days I can net about 400. Other days about 100. Depends. I have 2042 to start with and burn so much of that off plus more. Depends on the day but I'm never anymore than 1000 net at the moment. I eat all damn day though.
