Runtastic and Fitbit calorie adjustment - double counting?

I use a FitBit Charge and I use Runtastic when running. Runtastic automatically posts my exercise minutes to MFP. I also work out at home on an elliptical and/or treadmill which I manually post as cardio to MFP.

Then in comes the fitbit calorie adjustment for my daily activity.

I have to wonder - does tracking my activity in this way AND allowing the fitbit calorie adjustment double counting my calorie burn for workouts?

    No. Just don't sync Runtastic to Fitbit also.
    MFP syncs the entry to Fitbit, and replaces their calorie burn for the time and duration.

    Calorie adjustment is NOT just exercise, it's the whole day. Which may or may not include exercise.
