Fitbit Calorie Tracking Doesn’t Track Calories

This is the stupidest calorie counting app ever.  I tried it for a day, and come dinner time I have no way to know how many calories I have left in the day, unless I stay up to midnight when I believe the total allotment will be calculated.  

 

I tried it for one day to see if I could make it work.  I see that yesterday I had 1,677 in and 1770 out.  Yet, I’m 407 calories over for the day, even though I exercised.  Over what?  What was my total allotment?  1,100 calories?  


Just when I thought I had a solution by changing to “sedentary”, which is, by the way, a misnomer, I find out I can only do it not the web version.

I’m cancelling premium, it doesn’t even give me a good way to track calories.

Make sure you have the food settings switched to "maintain weight". It sounds like it has accidentally been programmed to lose weight.
