So it's been a pretty average day as far as exercise goes (normal burn about 2200 calories). It's only 3:30 PM and my fit bit is showing that I burned 5600 calories. It's wayyyyy off! Anybody else have this happen? Anybody know why? I haven't been using it consistently but need to start and now I'm super frustrated.

    When you say you haven't been using it consistently - did you just start using it again today? Have you synced it with your phone or computer? Double checked all your settings on the webpage to make sure everything is correct?

    I've never had mine do anything out of the ordinary calorie-wise - only problem I have with it is it occasionally tells me my battery is low when I know it isn't, and an hour later it shows it's fine. :tongue:

    If it's not an issue with the settings, check the help pages on the website -there's got to be something that just needs to be tweaked or reset.
