Goal minus food plus exercise?

I am new to Fitness Pal and was hoping someone could answer a question. At the top of my diary it shows goals minus food plus exercise equals remaining. I don't understand why it is showing a 2 in exercise when I haven't logged any today.

    Your diary is private. Can you open it?
    Check and make sure you didn't accidentally log exercise for the wrong day.

    Do you have a Fitbit or other tracker set up on your account?

    Debrakgooguns, I didn't not think I had another tracker set up on my account but after further investigation, it looks like it has something to do with my iPhone. Apparently it's recording my steps, if I have my phone. Do you know how to disable it? It's really throwing me off. Thank you!

    For android, you go to Settings, then Steps, then there is a box Don't Track Steps. I would assume it is similar for iPhone.

    Thank you. I went to settings, my fitness pal and turned off motion activity. I think that will work.
