Fitbit Weekly Progress Report Email

I'm curious if other people notice that their weekly Calories in vs Out does not add up correctly.
For Example, mine shows "-2,617". Then it says 18,611 cals burned, -8994 cals eaten.
The cals burned and eaten are right but I'm failing to see how they came up with the -2617 cal in vs out

It doesn't mean what you think... In the report, it is showing you how what was logged compared to your chosen food plan. From what you logged you had a 9612 deficit which would be if you wanted to lose 2.7 ish pounds a week. The highest setting both MFP and Fitbit allow for weekly loss is 2,000. It is saying your deficit was 2,617 calories higher than it should be based on the plan you chose. the +x or -x is showing how much over or under your chosen plan's deficit. It sounds like you were set up for a 2 pound a week loss (which should be a 7,000 weekly deficit or 1000 calories a day).0

OK that makes sense. Thanks for the response!0

Sorry, I see a pretty bad typo and MFP won't let me edit right now. I meant the highest weight loss setting that MFP and Fitbit allow is 2 pounds a week loss, or a 1000 calorie a day deficit. Somehow I combined that into one number that doesn't make sense. Sorry!0
