Are you on the website? It's under Account Settings/Diary Settings. It only works if you have an activity tracker synced to your account. If you are inactive for the first part of the day, it will subtract calories and then "give them back" when you begin moving more. If you know that you will be moving more (like a day when you work later), you can simply go ahead and eat them anyway (since you know you'll be getting them back later).
Example: I usually wake up at 6 AM, but the other day I slept until 9 AM. I had moved a lot less than usual, so when I woke up, MFP had already subtracted about 80 calories from my daily allowance. But I got up, walked the dogs, and began the rest of my normal activities. Within an hour or so, I was right back where I would usually be on an "average day."
Thanks don't know why there are settings on the website and not on the app. Anyway I think this fitbit thing is kinda garbage now anyway. Keeps refusing to sync even after restarts etc. Maybe Ill pair it to my other phone to see if it's any better.
It may be on the app, I just use the website for stuff like this more. I'm honestly not sure.
