Garmin vivosmart HR Tdee too low?

Hello! So to sum this up, I got an all-day HR monitor for Christmas and love it! I'm trying to gain weight and have MFP set to gain weight with the garmin adjusting the calories if I burn more than MFP suggests. Seems good and all but I'm not gaining on a base of 2200 calories (without exercise) could this just be garmin underestimating exercise calories? Or is my Tdee (before exercise) higher than what garmin places me at?

    How long have you been trying to gain? Are you using a daily weight trending app to monitor the trend? How much of a surplus have you (do you think you've) been hitting on average? It could be underestimating or it could just be not enough time to tell.
