Went for a walk. A fast walk as was with D1 who walks like she's on a mission at all times.
Anyhoo, MFP shows it as a few hundred.
Just got my Fitbit Flex today and this is what it showed when I got home:
3,484 steps 1.55 miles 1,686 calories
Mucha as I would like to burnt that much, I really don't think I have!
Does anyone else have this sort of problem with Fitbit calorie burnt?

The calories and steps aren't the estimate for your walk, they're for the whole day from midnight on and include your BMR.0

Thank you :-)
I'm being very dense...
Ah!! Just wrote out a great long reply, then realised what the BMR bit meant! See, me being very dense...
On the Dashboard it isn't showing the exercise - just says that my Fitbit can't wait to get up and moving. Any ideas as to why that would be?0 -
The dashboard is showing no activity? It sounds like it's not synching. Did you follow the steps to link the device to your account? Has it ever shown activity on the dashboard?0
