Weight and Calories Burned syncing issues

SummertimeQueen

Hiya,

I'm using a Charge 2 Fitbit and syncing it with MFP.

Steps and food are syncing between them just perfectly, but Calories Burned isn't (negative calories is turned on and it is using FitBit for steps) and what seems to be happening is when I complete a day on MFP, it then sends my "weight if I continue like this every day" to FitBit which then updates my weight to the guesstimation from MFP on the Dashboard.

This is getting really annoying because my Calories Burned is hitting around a thousand each day, but only the calories from the steps are being recorded which is only maybe a hundred which means my calorie counting is incorrect.
I assume I am also going to be getting false readings from my Fitbit as any calculations based on my weight will be incorrect.

Very tempted to just delete MFP from the equation and just use the Fitbit dashboard but the food database at MFP is much better than Fitbit.

Any advice that isn't "turn it off and back on again" or "disconnect and reconnect" ???

Your weight on Fitbit is being changed?

Then that should sync back and change it on MFP too - is that happening?

You need to call in on that one - sounds like a bug.

Is this using the app or web account for MFP that seems to start that process?

And - you don't have to finish your food diary.
