    It's how many calories you consumed minus any you burned through exercise.

    What is left after taking eaten calories from burned calories
    example : ate 1540 minus exercised 400 the is net is +1140 calories left to burn in either exercise or normal body function

    As Angel said, it's how many calories you've consumed minus your exercise calories. Your NET calories is what needs to match your MFP calorie goal.
