Eating exercise calories

Will I really lose weight eating my exercise calories?
I’m a former WW who lost 115 lbs not eating my exercise “points.” I have 15 lbs to lose along with wanting to get fit... not skinny. I am working out 6-7 days a week (cardio and weights).
Just wanting to make good choices and be healthy.

Myfitness pal set my calories at 1200 before exercise. I decided to set my goal at 1600 calories instead. I don't eat exercise calories back now I've changed my calories. I have 11lbs to lose.2

If I am hungry I eat them. If I am not hungry I don’t eat then.6
