I have a question about the Apple health app and MyFitnessPal, when I check on my Apple health app it shows I have burned 543 active calories but my MyFitnessPal app only shows 120 calories burned and this is just through my steps. Does anyone else have this ?

    MFP & Apple Watch don’t integrate well. I use the Pacer app and connect MFP & Apple Health to it.
    In MFP, use Pacer for steps. After a tracked workout, sync Pacer to MFP. You will get a double adjustment. One from Pacer, and one from Apple Health. Delete the Apple Health since it’s a double. When you sync at the end of the day, your adjustment will match your “move calories” in Apple Watch. Set your activity level to not very active in MFP, otherwise, it will over project calories in MFP. My TDEE in MFP roughly matches my Apple Watch and I’m set to not very active despite getting 10-14K steps a day.
