    Is it on a very consistent base or just sparadic? If it's just once in while, then leave it be, but if you're going to make it a habit, be sure to change the settings.

    I usually do WAY more exercise than I set MFP at, and I just leave it, because it DOESN'T calculate your allowed food calories on exercise until after you've ACTUALLY DONE the exercise, if that makes sense. So, you can up it on your goals if you do it on a consistent basis, but it still won't change your allowed calories for the day.
