Then don't log it. Or log it as 1 calorie.0

I want to Log my exersize.. I just dont want it to give me extra food for the day1

Manually put in 1 calorie in the Calories Burned window.0
-
So just don't eat it...? I don't see what the problem is here.1

I try to look at at it as extra calories burned that are helping to lose wieght0

You have a few options:
- Upgrade to premium
- Log exercise with 1 cal burn (I think you might even be able to do 0.1)
- Don't log your workouts
- Write your workouts into the Note section of the exercise diary and don't log them
- Ignore that it's adding calories and just eat to what calorie amount you want to stick to

Are you using TDEE to get your calorie goal? If not, you should eat back at least a portion of your calories.0

Agree. Otherwise, why do you want to turn it off?0 -
I wish I could turn it off as well because I never eat back my calories burned. So I either ignore it or just don't log it. Personally if I'm not going to eat it back there's really no point in logging it IMO.0

I have this same problem. I'm doing IIFYM and I don't want it to keep changing my goals. Otherwise, why bother logging at all? I like seeing what calories I burned, but it's silly that it changes my custom goals.0

You don't, MFP is a NEAT method calculator. You account for exercise activity and thus the requisite calories by logging exercise when you do it and thus getting extra calories for that extra activity.
If you're doing TDEE then you don't need to log exercise into MFP; as such, there wouldn't be an issue.0 -
premium allows you to turn it off.0
-
Two questions, how do you upgrade & what does the upgrade give you?0
-
This is one of the reasons I upgraded to premium. I used the new setting to turn this off and now can enter my exercise and see it, but it doesn't affect my daily calories (I use TDEE). That along with a few other things (setting macros by gram) made the annual plan (works out to $4.08 or so a month) worth it.0

Damn....I am in Canada and it's not available yet0
-
I just wait and add exercise at the end of the day after i've logged all my food.0
-
I think most of the points have been hit all I would add is don't use MFP for getting you exercise calorie burn in the first place, use a HRM. My burns are significantly from one to the other, and it's always higher on MFP.0
