I have had the Blaze for 3 days now but the calculation of calories burned are way off course. I understand that you are burning calories when sitting down or sleeping but surely the fitbit should only register that if you are wearing it!!!  I looked back at past history and it states that I have burned 1236 calories every day going back to last year.  Pretty amazing considering I never owned one then.  Does anybody have a solution to this problem?

Thankyou for your quick reply.  At least I know the reason for it and am now assured it isn't faulty.  The main thing is, it is really motivating me to get fit!
