Does anyone use the calories burned on their Fit Bit on this site? if so, how do you enter the calories burned?

    I have the two synced. Fitbit will give me a positive adjustment to exercise calories when I've burned more than MFP says I've burned. And I never enter exercise in on MFP.

    You can connect the fitbit app to your myfitnesspal, and it will automatically transfer what it considers exercise calories.
    I walk daily, and it usually averages 200-300 calories, depending on how much I walk; and adds more for my other work out routines.

    Click on the APPS tab at the top of the screen and you should see fitbit right at the top of the list. It should say connect or get app - click on that and connect your two accounts. Easy peasy. :)
