What's up with the calorie calculations on here

Why does MFP minus calories from my steps?? So annoying. The calorie calculator doesn't work like it used to. Even from my workouts. I have my normal daily activity as sedentary as work a desk job. MFP calculates my calories for weight loss as 1200 and then minuses steps! I did 10000 steps the other day and no calories added. Did a workout the other day in Apple Watch, burnt 300 calories and it only added 168. WTF - I exercise to eat more but then continue to remain in a deficit. If I didn't amend myself or know anything about nutrition I would only be getting 900 calories a day instead of 1500-1600 I am due. The system is flawed!!

You might need to disconnect and resync your accounts. The adjustments from my FitBit are working so this isn't an issue with the MFP calculations but something glitchy happening in your account more likely.
Either way hope it is fixed soon. I rely on my adjustments because activity varies.0
