Steps and exercise

I connected my Garmin 235 today to mfp. I want to record my runs but also my steps throughout the day like my Fitbit did. It has posted both my run and my steps and it says I have an extra 2000 exercise calories. I know this can not be right. It looks like it counts the steps that I do during my run so I get double. Is there a way to fix this?

This is still an issue. I started using a 235 this week and it is definitely including the specific exercise is the "calorie adjustment" number. Effectively double those calories as you state above.
Has anyone sent this bug to MFP?0 -
