Fitbit and MFP

I’m having trouble getting Fitbit calories to show up on MFP. I had to put it in manually but then it doubles up on my Fitbit app. Any suggestions ?

    Here's the FitBit group, maybe the answer is in the FAQs

    When you link the two you only need to put the food logging into one of the two. Personally I enter my info into MFP and then it syncs that to Fitbit's site. If you enter the foods on both sites then you will end up with double entries like you describe.

    Exercises are not synced over from Fitbit.

    And when you manually input one on MFP - they did not double up on Fitbit. (unless you got the am/pm choice wrong)

    Need to read the FAQ to understand what is going on - sounds like no issue at all - merely understanding how they work together.
