Fitbit is totaling calories burned before I owned it / turned it on. Is there a way to start some sort of calorie calendar...? Day 1 December 26th in my case..? Or remove from memory those 2 weeks of daily burned calories BEFORE yesterday? Thank you

Those are your BMR (basal metabolic rate) calories, burned just by being alive.  They are credited even when not wearing the tracker, and show in history as far back as you scroll.  You cannot get rid of them.

See How does my Fitbit device calculate calories burned? 

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