    I have had my Charge HR for a few weeks now. My wrist has started to hurt wearing it. Anyone else?

    Are you getting any radhes or skin reaction to it?

    How long do you wear it before taking it off?

    I didn't have problems but found that I shouldn't sleep with mine - So I only wear it during the active parts of my day - It comes off by dinner and charges overnight. I log my sleep manually now.

    I'm concerned about the EMF emissions at night while it's monitoring my sleep. Otherwise I love it.

    Jason here in AZ. I've been using my ChargeHR and MyfitnessPal for around a year and a half. So far I've lost 70lbs. https://www.fitbit.com/user/3BDJHJ

    Hey fitbit charge users!! I have a question .... I have my fitbit synced with mfp and when I perform an exercise let's say for 30 min. The total calories burned doesn't come over exactly the same to mfp. Am I doing something wrong? I want to accurately account for calories burned during my exercises.
    Thanks

    First - this isn't the best place to ask questions. This is really just for finding other people to be "friends" with.
    Second - read the FAQ if you haven't already. Here's a handy link: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10098937/faq-syncing-logging-food-exercise-calorie-adjustments-activity-levels-accuracy/p1

    If you have questions after you've read the FAQ, then search for answers, or ask a new question, in the "Discussions" section of the group.

    My replacement Fitbit only lasts 8 hours on an overnight charge...I'm a sad camper, hopefully I will get a replacement for my replacement. In the meantime, I would still love to have more friends... https://www.fitbit.com/user/3ZNQL5

    Is anyone having issues getting their Charge to sync with myfitnesspal? The past three days my steps don't show in my calorie count for the day. Yet, when I go to my fitbit dashboard it shows the steps just fine. This is the first time I have had this problem and have been using fitbit with myfitnesspal for several years. I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting the device with no luck. Any ideas?[/quote

    Just got mine yesterday; charged it, set it up & wore it today! The battery needed charging when I got home from work (I assume because I checked it so much and have all day sync, an alarm and notifications set.

    I noticed that when I log my exercise with my fitness pal, then look at the fitbit dashboard both the recording from the fitbit and the myfitnesspal entry is there. I'm concerned it's double counting. My food log in myfitness pal is not transferring over either. Any suggestions?

    Trekpig I am also having issues with syncing my steps in MFP. I am finding it quite frustrating, I am just glad it isn't just happening to me

    I did yesterday. It took several minutes for MFP to log quite a bit of activity from my Fitbit.

    One is an Activity Record - a snapshot of that block of time for the workout - with the stats for that block - rather than stats just being buried in the daily totals.

    From MFP is a Workout Record - this replaced the calorie stats that Fitbit came up with. If you used exactly the same no biggy, if you used different, then have a good reason. Wouldn't change the Activity Record since it was first and is a snapshot of what was - not what is currently.

    Should read the FAQ in the stickies so you know why not double counting - and why not needed (usually) to log workouts in MFP.

    Just make a wall post of the workout - with better details then MFP would show. Be inspiring!
