Fitbit Calorie Adjustment

SylviaCherie

I'm trying to see if my fitbit is really synced with MFP. I'm over my steps and actually did an hour of spin class however I don't see "fitbit adjusted calories" like I've seen on other people's diary. Am I doing something wrong?? Please help.

Your diary is closed so I can't look at your exercise part. But if you don't see a Fitbit adjustment, then maybe they are not synced? Were they synced/showing an adjustment previously?

Though I've seen many posts about Fitbit and MFP not communicating lately.

According to MFP I am connected. On my fitbit app I see the MFP calories transferred over. I have no clue why exercise or steps are not showing up here on MFP.

Actual exercises will not transfer to MFP, that is normal. You will only get a Calorie adjustment which is updated each time the two programs sync. If Fitbit Steps are showing and you have a zero Calorie adjustment, you may not have done enough movement to exceed your MFP Activity Level setting, taking into account your rate of loss per week. If no Fitbit Steps are transferring see below.

If MFP and Fitbit are synced but you are not seeing Fitbit steps, on the MFP mobile app go to Menu > Steps, or on the web version go to APPS > Steps, and make sure Fitbit Tracker is selected as the Step Source.

Please see these articles, and search for answers to Frequently Asked Questions and other helpful articles, on the MFP Help/FAQ pages...

It's working now. The MFP app wouldn't allow me to disconnect the Fitbit app so I went online, signed into the account and was able to disconnect the app and then reconnect fitbit now everything is synced. I gained an additional 1000+ calories.
