Hi there, @Chetso. Welcome to the Community Forums. Thanks for the details provided in your post. 

When you create a Fitbit account, the website uses your physical data (weight, height, etc.) to calculate your BMR calories. These are the minimum calories you'd need to burn every day to stay alive. It then populates your profile with this calorie burn back for six months or so to give you a sensible baseline against which to compare your future calorie burn once your Charge 5 starts tracking your exercise and adding exercise calories to your BMR calories.

The short answer is that what you're seeing is correct behavior and the calorie counts re individualized to you and there's no way you can delete these calories.
