Fitbit exercise not syncing

trollup120

I am new to the Fitbit and have a question. It syncs my steps but when I did 30 mins under the “weights” mode it does not sync that to MFP. So I’m wondering if the Fitbit IS still accounting for that activity in my steps it is sending to MFP or if as somebody suggested you should manually log the exercise in MFP which will double track it in Fitbit but then you just go to Fitbit and delete one. Confused lol any advice?

You aren't going to see individual activities sync to your MFP account from Fitbit. You will see an overall activity adjustment to account for the difference between the calories MFP estimated you would burn (given the activity level you provided) and what Fitbit estimates you burned. Generally it is recommended that you choose one method to track your activity and stick with that (in other words, don't try to track some on Fitbit and manually log some on MFP).

Right so the exercise should be included in the calorie adjustment even though it’s doesn’t show up on MFP

Yes, it's doing a total calorie adjustment even if you're not seeing individual exercises.

Ok that’s what I figured! Thanks 😊
