Hello people!

I’m using a charge2 and I’m a bit confused in regards of the calories burned every night. 
i’m starting the day with 1844 calories burnt over night witch is to much and I can’t understand why.

Anybody in the same situation?

 

Many thanks

@Sorin1984 Welcome to the Fitbit Community! It's great to have you here!

Let me help you with your calories burned calculation. As you said this amount early in the morning is odd. These calories are calculated using your personal information (age, height, weight) so please check that this data is correct on your account. Also do you have any third party apps linked to your account? Or have you manually logged any activities? These will affect the calories burned information.

Let me know how it goes.

Hi again,

Thanks for the quick response.
I just double check my details in the app and I can say that everything is right (age, sex, height, weight).
As for 3rd party applications I never had one linked to Fitbit app.

I don’t know what’s the cause for that and I’ll be grateful if you can guide me to rectify it.

Regards,
Sorin Titan
