I thought things were looking odd last week when it showed my daily calorie reading incorrect..... But my stats take the biscuit :

 

Apparently!  My average calorie burn was 1027 less than previous weeks...

 

...but I managed to lose a staggering 178.7 pounds???? !!!

 

I'd love to share my secret workout plan with you all, but nothing changed.  In fact my bodyweight increased by 2.3 pounds

Hello there @SunsetRunner, nice to see you one more time in the Fitit Community! There are no reports that the Fitbit app were failing specifically in the calories burn rate. If you weight is not showing correctly make sure you do not have an incorrect log on your weight history. This is very common and it will explain why you have this oddly amount of weight lost.

 

I would recommend to review this, using the online-Dashboard, as it will give you a wider scope of your entries. If you find an entry that is not correct, just edited or delete the log.

 

For more details please refer to: How do I edit or delete Fitbit data and activities?

 

Hope this helps and keep participating in the Fitbit Community!
