Help With Tracker

I took a break from MFP for a bit, and when I started using it again, it's taking out the calories I've burned from my daily caloric intake. Does anyone know why, or how to change it? I've tried changing some settings, but nothing has worked so far. I've attached a pic.

It's subtracting calories because, according to your Fitbit, you have not taken enough steps to match up with the activity level you set up for yourself on MFP. Until you surpass that threshold for the day, you will not earn any extra calories. It's currently subtracting calories so that you don't eat at a surplus and it really shouldn't be changed.7

there is an option to turn subtracting calories off in your settings0

You told MFP what your planned activity level was, and MFP assigned a caloric goal based on your estimated planned burn.
Fitbit is independently estimating your burn based on what it has been detecting for the day.
So far it has detected less activity than what is included in MFP's sedentary setting.
As such mfp is adjusting your calories downwards to match the Fitbit estimate.
This can change, of course, as your activity level varies.
MFP and Fitbit will perform their final adjustment at midnight at which point mfp will adjust based on your Fitbit's estimate of your burn.0
