Why is MyFitnessPal saying I will gain weight when I am under calorie goal?

Eating all my day's calories
Not new to diet and exercise but wondering if I should eat my "earned-through-exercise" calories or not. I want to lose (relose) about 20lbs. I've been working out with dumbells and some stationary biking 5-7 days/week and am over 60. Watcha think? TIA.
