Over target calories changed but I didn't eat

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.
At about 9pm, it read 98 over target.
At 11 pm, it read 556 over target.
Between 9pm and 11pm I did nothing but watch tv. I did not log any additional food. Can someone explain why the huge change in target for seemingly no reason?

Welcome to the Fitbit Community @step2it, hope you're doing great today! Did this happen again? When you noticed this, did you check firs on your Dashboard online and then on your Fitbit app or viceversa? 

 

For additional information or just be clearer:

 

I only received my Surge on Saturday, but I think I might understand the general mechanics of how it is working.

  1. Overbudget means that you're current deficit is too small compared to your target deficit. You need to eat less or, better, get more active.
  2. Underbudget means that you're current deficit is too large compared to your target deficit. You need reduce your activity or, better, to eat a little more.
  3. In zone means that you're current deficit is just about right compared to your target deficit. You are doing everything just about right. You haven't necessarily been more active than usual, but you are eating for your current activity level.
  4. Calories left means that you can eat that many calories between now and midnight and end the calendar day in zone. You can have part or, if calories allow, all of that tempting chocolate bar before bed and not feel guilty.

 

I'll be around if you need me!
