Syncing calories burned Striiv with MFP

Do any of you sync Striiv with MFP? I just started syncing them today. I'm having a hard time believing that I'm burning as many calories as Striiv says I am. I am not really exercising, it's just tracking g my usual daily steps. It's adding the calories back into my daily allowance. I'm afraid to use those calories that its adding back because I don't know that I'm actually burning that many. I hope this makes sense! Any thought on this?

    You'd be surprised at how many calories you burn just walking. Especially if you have spurts of more active walking throughout the day. Even with my mio heart rate monitor/watch, its logging about the same amount of calories.

    What irks me is that sometimes it doesn't sync well with My Fitness Pal, so I have to go back and manually log it as cardio.
