Hi guys, I have switched off (actually not charged) my Fitbit Blaze for a couple of weeks. After that I recharged the Fitbit for 100% and now it has gone crazy with the numbers of calories burned. Without doing anything it says I am burning 2800 calories and my average now, without even wearing the watch or tracking any activity, is 7500 calories. Has anyone experienced this as well? And how to solve this? Thx!

It's great to welcome you @E1111.

 

If the amount of calories that your tracker is showing is not being accurate, I recommend restarting your Blaze and check your personal information since keep in ind that your calories are based on your basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the rate at which you burn calories at rest just to maintain vital body functions like breathing, heartbeat, and brain activity.

 

Your BMR usually accounts for at least half of the calories you burn in a day and is estimated based on the physical data you entered when you set up your account: sex, age, height, and weight.

 

Let me know the outcome. Smiley Happy
