    If you normally earn extra calories from your tracker, negative enabling doesn't really matter. If you're constantly seeing no calories added, you have your activity level set too high. (Like choosing active when you're sedentary.) Then turning on negative calories can show you how far under you are from what MFP expects. If MFP thinks you're burning 2000, so tells you to eat 1500 but you're only burning 1700: you might want to know.

    Do you have negative calorie adjustments enabled? Also, when I linked my Jawbone, I was told to put my activity level to sedentary and let the tracker do the rest.
