Over the last 3 weeks the calories I am burning are showing as around 50% less than they did before, although I am doing the same activities.

I walk most days and calories burned used to show between 1700/1850. It now shows as around 800/900 burned. 

Any ideas on what could be causing this apparent anomaly?

One thing that can cause this is where one or more of your profile settings for age, weight, height etc get accidentally changed as these have a direct effect on the calorie calculations. It's worth a quick check of yours at https://www.fitbit.com/settings/profile
