Calorie Over/Under Budget

[Katydidit]

Has anyone else noticed that when you have more calories going out than coming in but the Over budget is still showing? Does this happen to anyone else? Any advice? I'd this a glitch or am I not understanding?

Hi @Katydidit

There's a setting on the food log page (computer / fitbit.com / account) which can be changed to increase the accuracy.

Change setting on Food Log Page

On the Food Log page, standard a setting is used to base the calories allowed on personal history, when being more or less active the calories can increase or decrease alot.

Change to sedentary when desired to increase the accuracy, when being more active, the calories to eat will increase.

Just wanted to see if this applied to my situation if you wouldn't mind taking a look at it. I had mine set to sedentary but I've been very active since using my Fitbit. So today I have 1344 in and 2133 out.  But it says i have 500 left to use but I go to use them it says I'm over budget.     any advice would be appreciated.

I would like to know the answer to this as well please. Mine says 1168 in and 1291 out.....172 cals over budget  but it tells me I have 437 cals left......I'm confused.
