Calorie adjustment between Jawbone UP and MFP

Been reading the forums all morning trying to understand the differing calorie adjustment between mfp and my UP. I don't understand it.
Today says:
No food logged yet.
UP burn as of 7:03am (less than 20 minutes ago) 403 cal burn
UP calorie burn daily projection 1791
MFP calorie burn daily projection 1966
UP calorie adjustment -175
My height/wt settings are exactly the same on both devices.
So can someone please explain the discrepancy between the numbers?
Also my food isn't syncing to my up band either. Or some will sync but not everything (yes I'm aware of the 3 hour delay, but I can look back at 3 days ago and it's still not synced.) also the time zones are correct on both devices.
