Hi there, am very short and petite frame so RMR on Fitbit always used to say 10 cals burned for every 15 minute period. I’ve just noticed that since end of June it changed it to 11 cals for every 15 minute period. That makes a different of about 100 calories a day. Just trying to stay at maintenance. Why has Fitbit changed it? It did this randomly once before and I’m pretty sure that it led to a slow gain but it’s so hard to tell with that amount. Somehow before it went back to 10 cals RMR...... has this happened to anyone else? I tried updating the app. no change.....

Your weight affects BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate), assuming that is what you mean. When your weight goes up, so does your BMR calorie burn.
