Has anyone had any issues with no workouts at all syncing? Currently MFP is not showing any of my workouts today, though they're in Apple's Activity Centre and in my Healthkit. Steps are showing in MFP but not workouts.

I've had no sync since Saturday evening - no adjustments at all for Sunday or today so far.

Mine has been fine today but I seem to have lost my calorie adjustment for yesterday and Sunday, although they were both fine at the time. Very strange.

I've had this happen before. Usually after a few minutes syncing brings it back. But I've randomly lost my adjustment for yesterday and Sunday - just poof, gone.

I've got the same problem.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've worked out what the calorie adjustment should be, from MFP's estimate versus Fitbit's final total for each day, and added that in as a bogus exercise. My Fitbit calorie burn has adjusted higher, so it's clearly working in that direction. But nothing has synced back to MFP in the way of a new…

I've not tried adding bogus workouts, no. What would that accomplish? Would it check which way the problem is, Fitbit sending information to MFP or MFP receiving it?

I'm having exactly the same issue - two lines of calorie adjustments, one that cannot be deleted, and one based on a MFP value which includes 'calories burned' from somewhere. It's very frustrating, as it seems to be fine logging steps, adjusting calories until I get to mid-afternoon and then all the values seemed made-up…

I'm having this issue with MFP losing the adjustment after a while, or showing one number and then another next time I refresh or sync - but in my case both figures are wrong because the MFP calorie estimation is wrong! Gah!

No, they'd never do that, surely! ;)

Yeah, that's a similar problem - surely the MFP estimate should be static based on your settings, rather than as changeable as it seems to be at the moment.

Yeah, most days MFP estimates my daily burn, based on my settings, as 1830 or so. Today it's 1980, so my FitBit adjustment is about 150 cals too low. But it keeps changing too, and I can't figure out or where it's pulling that figure from, as my settings and stats are all unchanged.

Should MFP's 'calories burned' stay the same through the day or change in line with FitBit's 'calories burned'? I can understand why FitBit's estimation varies throughout the day, because it knows how active I am (or am not), but MFP should give me a static figure based on my height, weight, activity level settings and…

I've been having issues with my calorie adjustment, in the opposite direction - but the problem seems to be more on MFP's side - it's showing my estimated daily burn as too high considering my Sedentary settings, which is affecting my calorie adjustment.

Waitrose stock a brand called Oppo, which is lovely. It's not as low-cal as Arctic Zero, but it tastes way better. I tried Arctic Zero last time I was in the States and it just tasted like flavoured ice. Opp is about 350 calories for the entire pint, which is hard to beat!

Don't expect to get quick results. You didn't put all that weight on in a week or a month or even a year, so don't expect to lose it that fast either.

Yep to both of those. I wore it on my left wrist so I started off with the FitBit set on non-dominant, but then I switched the setting to dominant to see if that would reduce the sensitivity, but it didn't seem to make any difference. And I always have my settings on negative too. As an example, one day using the Charge HR…

I have it set at sedentary so I don't overestimate my activity level and can judge it based on my daily calorie adjustment, rather than pre-guessing my activity level for the day. But even on days I would consider relatively light exercise-wise I was getting 300-400 extra calories, and on my active days I was getting over…

I never cut carbs. I've lost 76 lbs over the past couple of years - and I don't eat any particular diet, I don't eat 'clean'. I probably don't even eat all that healthily. I eat what I want, stick to my calorie limits, exercise 3-4 times a week for 40 minutes minimum, I have a FitBit that logs my steps and gives me bonus…

Bumping! Love pumpkin-everything - kills me it's so hard to find canned pumpkin here in the UK, and we don't get anywhere near the range of seasonal pumpkin-flavoured products!

Ditto. The only reason I go to the gym as often as I can is so I can eat back my exercise calories and not feel guilty about what I choose to spend them on. Cake and french fries for the win!

BUMPING!

Bumping! Some of these ideas sound delicious.

I always set my BMR exercise level at sedentary, and then count the exercise as extra. I tend to go off what the machines at the gym say as regards calories burned, rather than MFP - since MFP has no way to knowing what elevation or resistance I've set the machines at, only speed and/or time used.
