Fit Bit Calorie Calculation Wonky

[GosportNancy]

Hi all.

After logging my first day food diary today I saw that although I had eaten around 1000 or so cals that fitbit tells me I am about 200 calories over my limit of 1750 calories.

How do I tell fitbit they have their sums wrong...or am I missing something?

I take very little exercise due to being physically limited so just logged housework and pottering about the house. Even so, their calorie limit is ridiculously low when checking it but their calorie starting allowance is much higher than the food I ate today.

The zone thing is for that moment of the day. So it might have said you were over, even though you only ate your allowance as it was not midnight yet. It is best to check if you were in the zone the day after.
