Do I need to log exercise in MFP while using FItbit

jeremiahdaniel1991

so I just picked up a Fitbit surge and so far I love it. I play about an hour of basketball a day, and prior to getting the Fitbit I would just log the 60 minutes in myfitnesspal and it would add the calories I could eat for the day. Now that I am wearing the Fitbit does it automatically sync? Or should I still be input the exercise? Thanks

If you've linked your fitbit to MFP then it will automatically put them in once you've synced your fitbit (either your mob or computer). SO much easier!!

No need to log any step-based activity—your Fitbit is tracking it for you. Log non-step exercise either in Fitbit (that's what I do) or in MFP—never both. Exercise logged in MFP overwrites your Fitbit burn during that time.

how do you sun your Fitbit to mfp? I'm going to apps and pushing connect but it isn't showing the allow button?
