    I actually used a calorie calculator from a different site (had a few more details with it) to figure out what I should be taking in each day. This calculation already takes into account my exercise amounts so I don't eat back my burned calories. I pretty much use MFP just as a diary for my calories and exercise since I feel it really excels in this role.

    So depending on where you're getting your caloric info, you might not want to eat those burned calories. Unless of course you're attempting to put on weight.
