I have my Fitbit synced with MyFitnessPal. It is syncing the steps but not any exercise I do. MyFitnessPal has given me 267 calories for step adjustment but I burned 454 calories in my workout???

Hoping someone can help as I have read all the advice about disconnecting the apps and reconnecting but nothing has worked.

    Fitbit doesn’t sync individual workouts over.

    It sends MFP your calories burned for the day and your adjustment is the difference between what Fitbit says you burned and what MFP thought you would burn.

    So while your workout burned 454 calories, you do far are only on track to have burned 267 more than what MFP thought you would burn without exercise.

    So for example MFP estimates at Sedentary I burn 1672 calories for the whole day.
    Thursday last week my Calorie Burn at midnight was 2422.

    2422-1672= 750

    So my adjustment was 750 calories by the end of the day.
