Why does it say both over and under budget for previous day?

[SunsetRunner]

I was wondering why every time a new day starts, it says I am over budget for the previous day? I will check that day and it has yellow and says "under budget" (ate about 1400, burned about 2100) going for 1 lb a week, and then underneath says "over budget by 548 calories". It always takes syncing several times over the day to finally make it be consistent and just change back to completely "under budget" (by 50 or whatever) for the previous day. It doesn't make sense that it always shows I'm over and under budget at the same time no matter if I have 50 or 500 calories left. I have my food log set to Sedentary so that it doesn't try to guess my activity either...

Is great to see you around @SunsetRunner!  

When you create a Fitbit account, the website uses your physical data like weight, height and gender to calculate your BMR (basal metabolic rate, those are the calories you burn just to be alive). So, your profile will use this calorie burn back for six months or so to give you a sensible baseline against which to compare to your future calorie burn.

Now, lets go to your main inquiry: 
- Overbudget means that you're current deficit is too small compared to your target deficit. You need to eat less or, better, get more active.
- Underbudget means that you're current deficit is too large compared to your target deficit. You need reduce your activity or, better, to eat a little more.
- In zone means that you're current deficit is just about right compared to your target deficit. You are doing everything just about right. You haven't necessarily been more active than usual, but you are eating for your current activity level.
- Calories left means that you can eat that many calories between now and midnight and end the calendar day in zone. You can have part or, if calories allow, all of that tempting chocolate bar before bed and not feel guilty.

However, in order to make your calorie count more accurate I recommend Create a Food Plan. Basically, use it as a guide to what changes you need to make to your life to move yourself into your zone and/or towards your goal. 

I hope this info helps you and don't hesitate to let me know if you have any other question!

I feel like you did not understand the question. I have a meal plan already. It says I am both over and under budget at the same time. Orange color, but writing underneath about being over. Now when I check it says I am under in both places. It's a bug that basically gets fixed once you enter food for the next day and sync, which is weird. But the previous day finally shows itseld as accurate then. Until you eat something (or if you have something previously logged for the next day) it will show as incorrect. It went from saying I was over by about 500 to suddenly realizing I was under by 160.

Basically the app takes hours to correct itself for the previous day. I might as well go back to using google fit and MyFitnessPal, since it doesn't have this many bugs.

My bad @SunsetRunner  sorry for the misunderstanding and thanks for clarifying the issue. In that case I recommend the following:

1. Update your Fitbit app to the latest version

2. Clear the Browser Cache on your Fitbit app by: Log out from Fitbit app > Phone settings > Fitbit app > Clear Cache > Clear Data > Close the app > Log back into the Fitbit app

Let me know how it goes!
