In a way, yes. If you know how much you are burning off, and how much you are consuming, there is a simple formula. To burn off one physical pound of fat, you need to use 3,500 more calories than you consume. For example, if you eat 1,200 calories in a day, you would need to burn a total of 4,700 calories to lose a solid pound.

What foods' kcalories would be considered as part of one's discretionary kcalorie allowance?

It means calories that you are free to "spend" (consume) as you see fit. For example, if you need 1800 calories per day and actually consume only 1600, then at that point you are free to eat a 200-calorie snack without gaining weight. Note that you still need to avoid saturated or trans fats.
