I am not sure what net calories are. How many should I have?

    You net should equal your goal.

    Net calories are listed as "Calories Remaining" on your home page. They are equal to your allotted calories plus calories burned in exercise minus any calories already eaten. Using the standard MFP method, you want your net calories (Calories Remaining) to be close to zero at the end of the day.
