Starting yesterday my Blaze showed I burnt up 6,962 calories and this morning by 9:00am without any exercise 2,237.  How do I fix this problem and yes I have done a reset of the blaze...

Have you checked that your profile settings for age, height, weight etc have not been changed as these directly affect the calculations. You can check yours at https://www.fitbit.com/user/profile/edit

I have the opposite problem, I walked the treadmill, worked outside picking up sticks, and have 6,563 steps but only a 1,014 calories burned. I am an older female but this seems awfully low for the number of steps and 41 active minutes. I also restarted the blaze but can't see that it helped any.

I have had the same issue a few times now. 

 

Most days it is fine but then it randomly does this. I am also finding that my tracker is not recording steps accurately - I wore a standard pedometer today to test it and my FitBit came out much lower.

 

I hope there is a solution...
