Hi All! I recently got a Fitbit for Christmas and am excited to have it linked to MFP. I read through the forums and made some small adjustments like enabling negative calories, setting my activity level to sedentary, and I stopped logging step-based exercises like running. The only concern I have is how many calories I am alotted after a high-step day. 10,000 steps means I burn/can eat back 500 step-adjustment calories! It just seems so high. Does anyone else have this problem, or am I being to paranoid to eat those calories back?

Im also a little confused about TDEE and "Active Minutes" on the Fitbit dashboard. Any help would be really wonderful!! Thank you :smile:
