The story:
Last night, I went to bed with 96 calories under and today, I saw I was 993 OVER. Ekk! :grumble:
The questions:
Does have to deal me being a Fitbit user? How did it happen? Should I be worried?

I don't know about fitbit and how it tracks these things but one day does not make a trend. You need more data, say a month or more of these bizarro swings before I would be concerned.

Do you have your Fitbit set to personalized? I found that if I used personalized it would do that to me - show under when I went to bed but the next day show me over. I reset it to sedentary and it didn't do that anymore (it gives you calories based on how active you have been so far during the day, instead of trying to guess how active you WILL be through the entire day). It shows really low calories to start the day, but you earn more as you go about your day.

So THAT's what's going on? Thanks!
