    My food from MFP is showing up on Fitbit, but my steps and activities aren't showing up in MFP. Oh well... an exercise in patience, I guess :)

    I'd bet it has to do with 1) loads of new FitBits received for Christmas/purchased in post-Christmas sales & 2) the January NY resolutions to lose weight/gain muscle/get fit & joining MFP as an aid for that. So a lot of increased traffic on both FitBit & MFP servers, plus the syncing over isn't a super simple process. Not worried, they'll sort it.

    Thank you for sharing that. I was wondering what happened to cause my steps not to sync yesterday. I keep reloading and reloading. Restarted my phone.

    Still not syncing for me - not sure how much longer this will take but I think MFP needs to add servers to adequately handle the problem today and in the future. The more users the larger the problem grows.

    Seems to be syncing again for me. Though they did warn of a significant backlog, so it could take some time.

    And yes, it seems like they need to add some capacity to their servers to handle the volume.

    I used Fitbit Dashboard to copy my work out/times to MFP while this outage is happening and it didn't double log activities. The Adjustment ended up happening over night and I was actually under what I actually burned by just a little bit when the adjustment happened. :) Hope this helps some of you. I am a new Fitbit user myself for only one week now so it sucks when this didn't automatically sync for two nights in a row until the next day :(

    it's the second evening of it not syncing for me - so yesterday evening I manually added exercise MFP to get an estimate for finishing the day. This morning syncing caught up from yesterday, and by deleting the manually added stuff I could see what I burnt at least in retrospect. It's annoying for figuring out if I have enough room for a snack though....

    My steps are showing up in my diary on MFP now, and my calories on FitBit, but I'm not getting any adjustments either way for the steps on MFP. So that's a little weird, and I'm at a middle ground area where I think I would have a few added calories but I can't really remember for sure. Oh well, I've got extra calories today by chance any way, I guess I won't worry about it.

    Mine syncs during the day but both last night and tonight it stops around 7pm Eastern. This is annoying to say the least.

    I haven't synced since 12/25 and I'm starting to get annoyed too.

    So should we manually enter activity?

    I wouldn't. It seems to catch up in the evening. It was just around now that it kicked in. but it will adjust once it starts "talking" to each other again.

    It's weird, it loaded twice for me yesterday and none for me today. However, my food log is transferring over to fitbit.

    Thanks for posting. I was wondering what was up yesterday. I think I'm all good today. The site is still running a little slow. But, my app is working just fine. I'm using that as my back-up to logging.
