After I added my exercise for the last two days my step amount decreased by several hundred steps. Today the distance and exertion minutes also decreased. This is the first time I have had that happen. Any reason?

If you are manually log certain activities for a time period that you were wearing your fitbit then it overwrites the automatically tracked steps with those for the manual entry. This can lead to a reduction but should only do so if the manually logged activities was mainly step based like walking or running.
