Stranger than strange. My Fitbit starts fresh on Tuesdays, this week on Tuesday, I did Elliptical for 61 minutes and it says I burned 51 calories, Tuesday I walked on Treadmill for 41 minutes, it says 35 calories. Similar on Thursday, I did Elliptical for 65 minutes, it says burned 54 calories and walked 70 minutes it says 60 Calories. That's totally wrong as I have months of recording these activities.

Now today, it is normal, I walked 87 minutes and burned 511 calories. What gives?

@Duree, it's great to see that you've visited the Fitbit Community!

Let me help you with your caloric burn calculation. Check your personal information (age, gender, weight, etc.) on your account as this information is used to calculate your data. Since these exercises have already been logged you could manually log them so you have a better caloric burn data on your account.

Let me know how it goes.

Hi thanks for your reply however that does not answer my question. I stated that for the first two days of this week the calorie count was a fraction of what it should be and then on the 3rd day it went back to how it always has been.
Nothing was changed in the dashboard or personal statistics, it just arbitrarily gave a super low calorie burn, 1 hour and 10 minutes on the elliptical burning 35 calories?

That is my question.

Thanks,

Andra
