Confused!

Hi,

I'm sorry if I'm asking what may seem like a stupid question but I've looked for the answers on here and cant seems to find one!

MFP work out that my daily cals should be 1360 however for some reason I've got an extra 681 cals for exercise logged from my fitbit that I haven't done. Is this from yesterday or what? I'm just a bit confused as to how if works out what exercise cals to give me and when it adds them on...

If you click/tap on the adjustment, it will explain the rationale behind it. Here's mine:

Fitbit believes I'll burn 2441 calories during the day, based on my burn as of 8:07a. MFP thinks I'll burn 2523 calories, based on my height, weight, age, gender, and activity level. This means that there's an 82 calorie discrepancy on the negative between MFP and Fitbit, so I have an adjustment to my MFP calories "available" of -82, as of now.
