Food logging & setting calories

[Barbzee]

My food logging stopped syncing with carb manager yesterday.

I want to set my calories to 1350. I read all the help suggestions and I must be a sloooow learner because I can't get it to work.

@Barbzee Welcome! Thanks for being part of our Community! 

I will gladly assist you with your food syncing but I do need more information about this and sorry for the late reply. When you mention "Carb Manager" are you referring to a third party app? Or are you seeing another part of the Fitbit account? Could you share a screenshot of this?

I look forward to your reply.

Thank you for replying. The food login issue straightened out on its own. I need help setting my calories to 1200 per day in Fitbit.

Thank you!

I use Carb Manager as well and I love it. I have no issues with setting calories in the FitBit Calories section to match what I have on my 3rd party Carb Manger app. I wish FitBit had a option where we could choose the Carb Manger so it would be on the Watch/Tracker. Please FitBit add it and Water Aerobics app.

Barbzee if you haven't gotten it figured out yet I can break it down for you how to set it. But you may want to try closing out of the app, restart your computer or phone and sign back into your app. You may need to clear your cookies on computer or Optimize your phone. In the meantime I will be working on writing the steps for both apps to add here. To restart the Tracker it's self hold the single button on the left side until it flashes back to the main clock face.

To FitBit Engineers Carb Manger has a sitting within the app to share information to FitBit Dashboard and is wonderful. I wish y'all had the app to add onto the Versa tracker it's self  to where I could view Carb Manger calories, carbs intake and calories, carbs burned through been active. BTW water aerobic app too for us elderly, handicap or just plain old water lovers. Thank you and have a wonderful day.

How to set calories in FitBit

2 ways to get there:

First let me explain: I was mistaken or forgotten... no way to manually put in your exact numbers, I was sure there was and if I find it I will be back with the info. So for now here is the way to rounds it off for you by determining you goal, currently weight and height and then your goals.

Then it gives you 4 options. Two of them is hard = 1.5 a week and very hard = 2.0 a week to lose as an example.

***

1st way of getting there: On your FitBit Dashboard touch/click the card symbol in upper right hand corner.

New window pops up. Stroll down until you see "Nutrition & Body", touch/click it and view your options in the new Window.

In the new Window pop up. All kinds of info to fill out by just touching or clicking it what you want to edit. One for calories settings is "Food Plan", make your selection and follow the prompts.

***

2nd way of getting there: On your FitBit Dashboard touch/click the "Calories in, Calories left" shortcut icon.

In the next Window in the upper right hand corner touch/click the 3 dots and select "Edit Food".

Next Window pop up: Touch or click "Food Plan" and make your selection and follow the prompts.

I hope this helps.
