Calorie Count Decreasing Automatically in App

ANSWERED

I started noticing today that the calorie count was not properly updating in the app. Each time I opened up the app and went to see my calories it would decrease by 1 point, yet no macros were being entered. I tried restarting my watch, the, app, my phone, all producing the same result after each restart. I even went as far as clearing the app cache and force closing the app with no success. The only thing that would allow the app to update the calories correctly and give me a brief accurate view was to log out and back into the app. This fix however would only last a few tries before the app started acting up again. Has anyone else noticed anything strange like this after this latest update?

So I noticed this morning that the calories were updating correctly when I went to th gym, but as soon as I hit my morning run for an hour and updated the calorie count to see what I had left in my budget, it started acting up again. This is the the same thing I noticed yesterday had happened before I posted. I use the Pixel 3 watch and can't imagine it has anything to do with that, so in order to see my calorie budget I'll have to log out/in throughout the day again to get a view of that stat. I can't imagine that prolonged high intensity workouts are not able to be calculated correctly.

Not quite the same issue as you but I'm finding about halfway through the day the food tile (or the screen you go into when you tap it) stops updating the calories out (and therefore the "calories left in your budget") part. The calories out on the main/front page is up to date, but it just stops feeding (heh) through to the Food screen. 

N.B. for anyone going to chime in with the "fitbit updates your calories throughout the day, this number goes up and down..." shpiel, this is NOT that question haha. Right now the front page of my app says I've put 1938 calories out, but the food page says only 1512 calories out.
