New to Fitbit.

Everything on this new Fitbit makes sense except that it's telling me I burned 1.135 calories yet I haven't taken more than 1,200 steps today plus I just bought it and put it on. Going to the gym at 5 pm.

Also when I look up the info in the app it's giving me calories burned all the way back to months ago. I don't understand. Anyone?? Thanks in advance.

Never mind. I found my answer in Google.

In case anybody else is wondering, your Fitbit burn is TDEE (total daily energy expenditure), the calories necessary to maintain your current weight. You burn calories just being alive—pumping blood, digesting food, etc.
