“Actually, what I want is to get MFP to believe that my sedentary maintenance calories are more than 1410 calories, because 1500 is likely more accurate. I don't want this to change what Fitbit thinks I burn or the Fitbit adjustment in MFP.” If you put a manual goal of 1500, it will not change your Fitbit adjustment; it…

The adjustment is based on your setup, (activity level and deficit), even if you have put in your own manual calorie goal. You can see the math by tapping the adjustment, then tapping again (on the app). For example, I have my set up at sedentary maintenance which is 1515 calories.

I'm 5'7" 120 lbs and maintain on 2000-2200…

I was having the problem of the "MFP Calories Burned" number changing with every sync (this number should only change if your stats change), typically much more than my usual sedentary setting. As said above, this made the adjustment useless, because eating goal was not changing (I'm in maintenance too), and I was not…

Your health provider should NOT be diagnosing GD based on the screening test. The limit for the screening test is set low so that no patients with the disease are missed--this results in a high false positive rate. GD should only be diagnosed based on 3 hour oral glucose tolerance test. I've have 4 children; failed 3/4…
