How does my Fitbit know how many calories I should be eating a day and how do I modify the number?  Mine indicates that I should have 856/day and that just isn't healthy.  Help will be appreciated.  Thank you.

you have to tell your fitbit in the app what your current weight is. what your desired weight is and what caloric deficit you are comfortable with on a daily basis. For most it is 500 calories a day. From there it will tell you what your in vs out should be to meet your desired weight loss.
