Is there a way to do this? (log exercise here if fitbit synched)

I have my fitbit synched and it seems to be working well. But, I want to be able to enter here when I do things, like walking. It helps to keep me motivated and on track. But, if I enter if here it shows up twice on fitbit and gives me more extra calories. Would it be better to just add it as a status update?

I am sure it sounds silly but I am just starting over and right now this makes me feel accountable.

    I don't use my Fitbit anymore, but when I did, I entered the time of the exercise. That alleviated the problem of getting double credit for it. Are you entering the exercise start time?

    I usually get the double credit on fitbit to. I stopped logging exercises on MFP and just use the fitbit adjustment. You can delete the duplicate entry in fitbit. Send me a message of you want step by step in fitbit.

    I like the way you phrased that :)
