Too much calories burned on a resting day

[nilab212]

I burned almost 2.700 calories on a resting day with 157 active minutes and only 3 km. And 5.200 steps

i didnt do anything that day just lay on the couch. Other days seem more accurate 18.000 steps and 12 km and 2.500 calories burned.

how can this happen?

Hi @nilab212, welcome to the Community Forums, it's a pleasure to assist you today.

Let me share with you that basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the rate at which you burn calories at rest just to maintain vital body functions like breathing, heartbeat, and brain activity. Your BMR usually accounts for at least half of the calories you burn in a day and is estimated based on the physical data you entered when you set up your account: sex, age, height, and weight.

The calorie burn estimate that Fitbit provides takes into account your BMR, the activity recorded by your tracker, and any activities you log manually. Your tracker's calorie count will reset each night at midnight and begin counting immediately thereafter. BMR is the reason your tracker starts the day with calories already burned—you've still burned calories even if you haven't gotten out of bed yet.

Please restart your Charge 2 and take in consideration the above information, and let me know how it goes.

See you around.
