    I tried to connect mapmyrun today and it won't connect either . Sad really. A feature isn't one if it won't work....and I'm not generally a negative guy.

    Yep, same issue Charge not syncing with MFP. Tried disconnecting app from MFP, revoking access in Fitbit, nothing works...

    So I see mfp is having issues syncing once again. I sure hope this issue is resolved quickly.

    It's times like this when you realise how much you come to take it forgranted when it's working!

    So, I'm using a Charge HR. I log my food in MFP and log my exercise in Fitbit.

    Two questions.

    1. I got on the treadmill and pressed the button to record the workout. Treadmill gave me summary that says I burned 331 calories. My activity log says I burned 423 calories. Go with the activity log?
    2. I'm going to start using the weight machines at the gym. I understand that if I log "weights" on Fitbit I'll get a calorie estimate that will sync with MFP. If I use the MFP exercise diary to log the weight/reps info, will that create a double entry on Fitbit?

    Confirmed that exercise is sync'ing in MFP. However, I'm not getting Food from MFP into FitBit.

    Did it happen automatically or did you do something for it to sync again??

    @songbird13291 : Go with the Fitbit estimate. It has way better information about you than the treadmill. For weights, I'm not as sure, but I think that if you log things in the MFP Strength Training section, it won't affect anything. Try it - you can always go back and delete.
