    Depends on where the breakdown was - not enough info to know.

    look at that Fitbit calorie adjustment - click on the "i" for more details, or in app hold and view them.

    That will tell you if MFP is even working with recent numbers, compared to what Fitbit ended up with.

    thats what i am saying MFP didnt sync with fit bit a day and it did the day before and the day after my fitbit says i burned 3464 calories that day and MFP base is 2069 so i should have had an earned calorie 1395 but for some reason under exercise it didnt have the
    normal fitbit adjustmant there is nothing to push to see the detials just wondering what would make it not show up for that day

    Ahhhhh - you could create a bogus workout on that day in MFP. Go for sleepy time, 500 calories for an hour.

    It will sync across to Fitbit and replace that calorie count - and should cause a sync back across.

    Once you see it - delete the bogus workout and wait.

    After another sync it should keep the Fitbit adjustment - but change the figures.

    Creating this just in Fitbit should cause it to happen to - I've had more success starting with MFP though.

    I haven't had a calories adjustment since Wednesday and I should have. ....
    The fitbit is talking and syncing to the app and the phone, but it's not relaying to MFP my calorie adjustment...
    I'll try putting in a workout and seeing if it get's with it...

    Apparently it's a site wide thing... I didn't have fitbit checked under 'steps' in the app.
    Here's how to do it :)
    Mines fixed for today, but guess not for the last 3 days.. oh well working again so..


    I had the same issue, and the answer is in their help section. It worked for me. Instructions copied and pasted below
