Versa Lite is tracking my calories way too high

[vflow]

My versa light is not actually calculating my zone minutes or calories after the update. It says I burned over 7,000 calories in a day and have over 1,000 minutes of cardio. I don't know what's going on. Anyone else having a similar issue? Fitbit experts?

Hi there, @vflow. Welcome to the Community Forums. Thanks for sharing the details about the issue with your Versa Lite. I understand where your concern is coming from.

While reading your post, I was wondering if you've checked that your personal information (weight or other profile settings such as height, age etc) has been entered correctly? If you haven't done so yet, please double check your personal information to see if your weight and height were properly set. To update your profile, see How do I change the units of measurement in my Fitbit account?

Fitbit devices combine your basal metabolic rate (BMR)—the rate at which you burn calories at rest to maintain vital body functions (including breathing, blood circulation, and heartbeat)—and your activity data to estimate your calories burned. 

Your BMR is based on the physical data you entered in to your Fitbit account (height, weight, sex, and age) and accounts for at least half the calories you burn in a day.
