Steps bumped down on BM Link

Hello!

When I check my dahsboard I have a certain number of steps, let's say 650.

When I use the Live function and upload from my Link, the steps ALWAYS get bumped down by 15 to 50 steps. Every time. Do you know why?

Thanks!

    I have no idea, I never noticed when I check it during the day, but will track it now closely.

    I haven't noticed it with my steps, but I just noticed the same thing with my burned calories. It went down by about 30, which isn't huge, but it caught my attention.

    Also, when I wake up in the morning, my BM has logged about 500 steps! I don't sleepwalk so where are those steps coming from?

    Sometimes my BodyMedia Display Device would say I have ~100 extra steps than my Activity Manager would say. I never knew why. However this was a rare thing for me, and it was never a significant amount of steps. You should probably contact BodyMedia and ask about this. Maybe your device needs to be replaced.
