What are you using to track your steps?
What are your height, current weight & gender?
I get something like 400 calories if I get my 10K steps, so I'm thinking something's not right here.

Would you mind providing a screenshot of what the MFP calorie adjustment looks like on the homepage?
Sure. See below.
yeah, something is definitely off.
Do you have both your fitbit and myfitnesspal set to lose weight? Same height, weight, goals, etc.? Can you try unsyncing and then resyncing your account?
edit: mine was doing this as well and it took me doing the above to fix it.0 -
Weird. My fitbit is also synced to MFP and I've gotten 4340 steps in today and it only added 180 calories .... I agree with the others, somethings off.0

Exactly the same.
It can't be different.
Every time I update one (with my weight for example), it automatically updates the other.0 -

As you can see, it added 700+ calories for 1,700 steps.
Ridiculous!
I though he meant go into your exercise section and show the breakdown posted in there too.
Or he posted while you were posting.0 -

Go to the website and make sure you don't have multiple fitbit adjustments in your exercise diary.
I recently had a few days where MFP'S website had several fitbit adjustments (only one would show in app...so check the website). Also click the little i next to your adjustment to see the math it's using to come up with that number.0 -

You should see something like this

Fitbit Issues - 4/3

Hey Guys,
Sorry for the recent issues with the Fitbit integration. While yesterday we were not seeing steps syncing from Fitbit to MyFitnessPal, today the steps appear to syncing over again. We will continue to monitor the situation and post any updates here.
Some users also reported that their Diary was showing multiple Fitbit Calorie Adjustment lines, when viewing it on the website. We are also unable to reproduce this issue today, however, please let us know if you are still seeing multiple adjustments in your Diary entry for Today.
If your issue is not mentioned or you are still seeing more than one fitbit Calorie Adjustment line in Today's diary, please click the link, http://:http://myfitnesspal.desk.com/customer/portal/emails/new, to reach us via email so we may assist you further.

Are you 200+ pounds overweight? The more you weigh, the more energy it takes to move.0

Ive done 2,000 steps so far and been given a grand total of 45 extra calories. I am set as sedentary on MFP and am 5"4 & 180pds. I usually get roughly 400 extra by the end of the day when I hit around 7-8k steps no purposeful exercise.
Looking back and Wed i did just over 6k and got 354, yesterday I got 990 extra cal and did 11k steps (that included a hard pace run of just over 2k steps and contributed 183 calories).
I would agree that seems very excessive unless your are very heavy.0 -

I checked. I don't have multiple entries.
then i advise you click the link and report the issue. Have someone from MFP help you with the technical problem.
I don't think any of us are going to be able to give you a direct fix because as i stated i was also having funky problems with mine and they resolved themselves once i unsynced and resynced. I think it's probably better to ask them instead of try every possible thing every one on the forum could suggest.0
