1993 calories entered for the last year

I recently purchased the Fitbit inspire hr and it works great other then the fact that when I opened the app on my phone it says that 1993 calories have been entered everyday for the last year. I purchased it on 28 June 2019 and it has log entries for calories for everyday before that going back at least one year? Also I can’t seem to delete them. Any ideas?

Also I’m starting to suspect that it is also adding 1993 calories to every new day as well..... so essentially there is 1993 ghost calories that it’s accounting for without me actually doing anything....

As well as tracking calories burned through activity your fitbit also tracks your BMR calories. These are the calories you burn just keeping your body alive (even when asleep). They are calculated from your profile settings for age, height, weight etc so you needn't be wearing your fitbit to get them. The 1993 calories per day will be your BMR calories.

Ok that makes a lot more sense now. Thank you for the response!
