Is there a way to change settings so fitness pal doesn't add exercise calories back in?

The only way I can figure is to not add your exercise. That's what I do.

I change all my exercise to just 1 calorie burned, that way I have a record and it doesn't add calories to my daily allowance.

Oh, that is brilliant! I like tracking my exercise -- it's the main reason I'm on there as I'm trying to break from calorie counting right now to see if I can keep losing without "dieting" -- but I like the accountability of MFP so much. So just change it all to a 1! Makes sense....

Good idea!

Or create your own exercise
