Hi everyone,

I am just confused because I don't know if mfp is syncing with my fitbit. Is it supposed to automatically calculate the calories burned with exercise? Or do I have to enter the exercise into that section for it to calculate?

Thanks

    If they are synced it should give you an exercise adjustment. There is a Fitbit users group that has some good info about how to sync them. You shouldn't be entering the exercise in mfp. If you are synced Fitbit will add the adjustment which is the difference between what mfp expects you to burn and what Fitbit says you are burning. Check out the group. There is a good explanation there on how to sync them.
