Does anyone have the weekly e-mail from fitbit that can take a moment to clear something up for me??

I get a weekly e-mail of last week and how I did, I am a little confused about the calorie Part.

CALORIES IN VS OUT
-1150
WEEKLY BEST
17682 cals burned
13032 cals eaten
-500 cals deficit
What does this all mean?!? The way I am reading it, I had a -1150 calories for the week. But if you looked @ calories burned 17682 vs. calories eaten, 13032, would you just subtract those and get the deficit? 17682-13032=4650 deficit. But is said I had -1150 deficit. I am so confused.

    NVM, I looked at my graph and I am coming up with the right numbers, I think that might be how much I was under 1 day.

    The -1150 is the additional deficit beyond the -500 daily deficit you were aiming for. (Hence a total deficit of 4650 = [(500x7) + 1150]
