Fitness/Daily calorie goal question.

Options
I'm sure this gets posted all the time-- but when adjusting my fitness/calorie goals, I noticed that if I put that I'm sedentary, but want to exercise 6 times per week for about 30 minutes, it gives me the SAME daily calorie goal (1200) than if I just put no exercise goals at all.

Why is that? I like eating my exercise calories back but I'm wondering how factoring in the exercise goals even makes a difference if your calorie goal is still the same either way?

Hope this makes sense...

    I don't think how often you exercise gets taken into account. It's just a goal for you to set and try to achieve each week.

    Bump. Any other opinions?

    I hope that's the case. Would certainly make things less confusing.
