Oh, okay. You're talking about the MFP app, then. Not the Fitbit app. Those 12 calories represent the number of calories MFP thinks you've burned over what MFP expected you to burn so far today.

If you haven't already, read the FAQ found in the stickies for the group. (If you have read it, read it again, as this question is answered there.)
