How to set my app

Can someone help set my app correctly? Should I connect my Fitbit? How do I set my calories to where it does allow me to eat when I exercise? I’m lightly active. I’ve had my account for awhile so I’m not starting from scratch so I need to edit my goals.

    Calories are set automatically, based on your weight and activity level. I'm undecided on whether to add my FitBit or not--I kinda see advantages both ways. If you enter your exercise, either manually or via FitBit. (Or another app) it'll automatically add calories based on exercise. (I'm not sure quite how to explain that!)
