Eating Exercise calories and Goal Weight at the end of the d

Options
I noticed that most say to eat the exercise calories that I earn every day.. but when I do and I add at the end of the day it will say " If I eat this .____ I will be so and so weight.. and the weight is is always more than my goal weight.
So should I eat the exercise calories or not?????

    It's telling you the weight you will be in 5 weeks, not goal weight.

    From everything I have learned and from long discusions with my personal trainer, he says to make sure you eat your exercise cals, that being said, I don't always eat all my extra cals but I try for at least 75% of them

    It tells you how much you'd weigh in 5 weeks if every day was like today (food intake/excercise-wise).

    I eat about half my exercise calories. If I'm working out a lot, I need the extra energy.

    i too have wondered if i was suppose to eat those calories but honestly I cant unless I was to eat something totally unhealthy to get it in.
    I only have a stomach that holds 4-6 oz at a time.(gastric bypass) and Im already having a issue getting in the 1200 calories a day.
    Thou Im wondering how I got fat if now that im watching and tracking what I eat how I gained it. maybe it came from all the vodka I use to drink??
    I physically cant eat another 500 calories that I burn off a day.
