Only gaining a few calories back from steps

In the last few weeks, MFP has only been giving me a few extra calories for my steps (using Apple Health). Previously, 10,000 would 'earn' me around 300 calories. Today I have done nearly 11,000 and have gained 69 calories. I haven't changed anything in my profile - is anyone else having this issue?

    Have you logged a run/walk or other exercise? MFP will try not to double calorie expenditure..

    No, not at all. I have runkeeper synced and it doesn't double up but today it has just logged my steps.

    MyFitnessPal has changed the way they calculate calories burned from steps when using your iPhone /Apple Health. There is an explanation in the FAQ area. They fixed an error but then they found another issue. I'm not sure it's totally fixed yet.
