    Settings --> Diary Settings --> Under calorie adjustments un-check "Enable Negative Adjustments"


    It will go away is by the end of the day you have burned the estimate MFP has set for you. If you have burned more, it will subtract the calories

    Make sure this is what you want to do. It's doing it because you're not burning as many calories as your activity level on MFP allows. Look at the blue help section on the top of this page and read up about how fitbit adjustments work.

    Remember if you do that- you may be eating more calories than you are burning.
