    It's a glitch in the app where it adds your exercise calories to your food total instead of subtracting them. Yet another quality upgrade from the team at MFP.

    A note for those who use Fitbit (or any tracker) and have negative calorie adjustments enabled:

    Set your MFP activity level to sedentary. Otherwise, especially if you are not really that active, Fitbit will catch you being not as active as your MFP setting and will adjust your calories downward as a result. That is the whole point of the negative calorie adjustments, and frankly is useful if you are trying to lose weight.
  • okay thank you :)
