I tried syncing my Fitbit with my MFP, but it didn't work. It didn't read anything and it was 0 excersize. How do I sync them together correctly?!!

    If it is saying in your diary Fitbit....0 (calories) - then that means there might be lag or more than likely you haven't broken over the burn limit to earn additional calories.

    Fitbit records your activity and if you click/touch the log for Fitbit in your diary (if you are using the website, you clikc on the little i) - it'll tell you what MFP has you at your guestimated maintenance and what Fitbit estimates you'll burn that day.

    For example:
    We'll just say MFP's maintenance for you is 2000.

    It'll say something like:

    Fitbit Calories Burned 1900
    Full Day projection Based on xxxx calories burned as of 00:00am/pm

    MFP Calories Burned (your maintenance) 2000

    Fibit Calorie Adjust - 0 (unless you go into your settings and enable negative adjustments. Then it'd say -100)

    If you are in a surplus - Fitbit Calories burned 2100 (for example) - then it'd say Fitbit Calorie Adjustment 100.

    If you are unsure if it synced, go to the Apps tab and look for Fitbit Tracker. it'll say if it is installed or not.

    Thanks,
    I tried that and it still registered 0 activity.
    I also tried going under steps and change it from iPhone steps to Fitbit and still registered as 0 activity

    Thanks, that is a great idea. I actually didn't think about it. But I will
