Those are not predicted values, they are fitted values.  Try predicting on 
the same set of variables as you printed.

Please do try to give a small reproducible example so we can see what you 
actually did.

Yes, so it's a fair guess that is not what you computed.  But, we can't 
tell what you did do.
