Can I get my FitBit scales to sync with myfitnesspal?

Still exploring the app!

Is there a way to link the myfitnesspal app to my FitBit scales or is just a case of manually adding my weight each day?

    If you connect your fitbit.com account to MFP all your caloric and scale information will start transferring over.

    You may also want to add a weight trend app such as trendweight.com into the mix so that you can have a smoothed weight trend available to you when confronted by wild water retention swings. As you can see below, I regularly swing a couple of lbs up or down on a day to day basis while maintaining my weight

    Last, but not least, you may want to go into https://www.myfitnesspal.com/account/news_feed_settings and adjust the "I have lost weight" button, so as not to keep telling your friends that you've lost the same couple of lbs again and again and again and again :smile:

    I used to manually turn it on when I actually WANTED it to make the announcement :wink:

    Thanks for your reply. I took a few attempts but I've now got the link with my FitBit working (and the repeat weight report cancelled!)
