I just purchased a FitBit and am loving it. Do I still enter my daily exercise in MyFitnessPal as I used to and let FitBit do what it does as well or omit exercise in MFP alltogether? I do know that I only enter food eaten in MFP. TIA

    p.s., FitBit Charge HR if that makes a difference.

    It depends on what exercise you do. If it is cardio the HR monitor / step counter should calculate it.

    If you are doing weights / resistance training fitbit doesn't know what to do with that so you'll need to log this separately.
