Fitbit and MFP exercise sync

My Fitness Pal (MFP) is not syncing my exercise from my Fitbit app. Today I have over 21000 steps and it's giving me a calorie adjustment of only 24. I could tell from other forums that it somehow switched over to getting steps from my iphone instead of Fitbit so I switched it to Fitbit and waited the 15+ minutes, but it is still only giving me 24 calories for the exercise. Can someone tell me how to get this fixed so that I get the correct calorie adjustment?

    I just go by what fitbit has for my daily calorie burn. I'm at a 500 calorie deficit so if fitbit says I burned 2200, I eat 1700. I know some people are skeptical of the accuracy for fitbit but its been working for me for almost a year now.

    It sometimes happens to me but it at some point in the day it usually catches up.
