Ok, why....?

I've lost weight. Yep. And this time it wasn't intentional--I swear!--but when my counselor told me that I'd lost weight (instead of gaining), I knew right away what'd happened: I'd increased my exercise a bit -- I'm now biking for 50 minutes straight 3-4 times a week, and exercising in other ways (like in PE class) 2-3 times a week. Despite having increased my calories, I was down to 91 lbs last Friday, and 90.5 the Friday before that. My counselor told me that I need to decrease my exercise; I bet I'd've never thought someone would say that to me! She kept beating it into my head--because she thought I wasn't getting it (though I'm not as stupid as she thinks I am)--that I can't expect to gain weight when I increase my exercise. I tried to convince her that it's not a good idea for me to decrease my exercise, because it'd be WAY too easy for me to bike for like 30 min. or so...There were some awkward silences and such between us; I don't even know how to (or WANT to) describe it. Our session ended before anything was really resolved. Am I supposed to increase my calories this week? I'm not really sure. I'm worried that these sessions are going to be a waste of my time, as well as hers, even though it's free. Oh jeez, what am I supposed to do now?!
