I have a fitbit, and I have it linked to my fitness pal. I just got done working out, and burned 400 calories (according to fitbit ) but it's not showing up in my exercise calories on here. Do I need to manually add them or leave it alone? Thanks!

    Apparently there are syncing issues at the moment. I've done around 10k steps today but it's only registering as 6100...

    yep. Fitbit hasn't been syncing properly for a couple of days. I feel bad for all the new fitbit users freaking out that they've done something wrong with the linking up of their devices.

    My exercise calories from fitbit haven't been syncing to the app for the past few days either.

    Syncing between MFP and Fitbit has been suspended for now - see here: https://myfitnesspal.desk.com/customer/portal/articles/2272192-fitbit-sync-delay-1-4-16

    Issues like this are usually resolved same day but sometimes persist for a few days. I'll be using Fitbit to determine how many calories I should eat, leaving ~100 or so extra, though I'll be logging food here. Might have to do some math on my own, but eh, that's fine :).

    I believe the FitBit syncing issue has been resolved today, or at least mine is finally syncing. I was very frustrated last night having just under 10k steps but MFP only registering about 2k!
