So I started using my fitbit again and I have noticed that it is only recording my steps but not my calories burned. Do I have to put it manually each physical activity such as me walking with crutches so it will give me the calories burned?

    MFP includes some walking already. Even with everything set correctly, you need to exceed 5000-7000 steps before calories are added.

    If you do an exercise that's not step based, then you still need to manually enter it. I'm set at "lightly active" and mfp doesn't give me extra calories from fitbit until I reach a minimum of 9,000 steps, and then it's like 40 calories.
