    Is anyone having issues getting their Charge to sync with myfitnesspal? The past three days my steps don't show in my calorie count for the day. Yet, when I go to my fitbit dashboard it shows the steps just fine. This is the first time I have had this problem and have been using fitbit with myfitnesspal for several years. I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting the device with no luck. Any ideas?

    Hi!

    I have exactly the same Problem.. driving me crazy..
    Everything that I type into myfitnesspal shows up on my Fitbit Dashboard but no Fitbit calorie adjustment on myfitnesspal.. I have tried connecting and disconnecting several times.. Hasn't helped one bit.
    Has anyone maybe solved this problem?


    Okay everyone: I just got my Fitbit, but I've read up a lot about it and if you want your stuff to sync you must enter the food you've ate on my fitnesspal. They won't work from the Fitbit app and sync to the fitness app. Also your steps don't sync from the my fitnesspal to Fitbit app. I don't know why, but they will the other way around. Finally, if you're exercising and you want it to sync, you must add a start and stop time on my fitnesspal. It won't sync if you do it from the Fitbit app. Okay I hope that helps. If it doesn't I got most of my information from Fitbit forums and experience, so good luck!

    It's true that individual exercises logged in Fitbit won't appear in your MFP news feed. However, if you log the exercise in MFP, it will overwrite the better data logged by your Fitbit (for things that your Fitbit tracks well such as walking, running, etc.) with what you enter in MFP. Plus, Fitbit's algorithms for estimating calories burned during exercise that Fitbits don't track well (weight lifting, swimming, etc.) are better than MFP, so exercise should preferentially be logged in Fitbit. If you need a post about your exercise in MFP, do it manually.

    I would recommend reading the FAQ found here in the stickies. Here's a handy link: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10098937/faq-syncing-logging-food-exercise-calorie-adjustments-activity-levels-accuracy/p1

    Hello! I'm looking to add friends on MFP who are similar to my stats. Married with pre-teen/teen kids and works. Looking to lose about 50lbs. I've had a Fitbit charge for 6 months, but no friends and I think that is what I'm missing for motivation. Anyone wanna be my friend?

    Sounds just like me, just I had a little less to lose and am about half way now. But still keen to get my step/exercise count in where I can. Happy for you to add me (on Fitbit, or here, or both): https://www.fitbit.com/user/3B8X53

    Check the general Fitbit topics, not the sticky that is purely for adding friends.

    I've been using a Fitbit and MFP since 2013 and had a great group of friends for challenges and motivation. One by one they all went inactive. At first I thought alien abductions but then when I went inactive too I realized we were all sitting on our couches watching TV. We'll I'm back and looking for some friendly motivation and witty banter. If you're up for a little competition hit me up at https://www.fitbit.com/user/27WVPD
