My Fitbit charge 2 seems to be over counting on the calories burnt. Up to mid-June it showed 2000-3000 calories a day. Then one week it suddenly started showing 8000-12000 a day. I hadn’t started doing lots of exercise to account for this change. Any idea why it’s gone crazy? How can I get it back to a more accurate level??

Check your weight didn't accidentally get changed to something much greater.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
