How come when I enter an exercise manually it decreases my calories burned on my flex? And doesn't show those calories burned on my fitness pal. For instance, doing 45 minutes of circuit training says I burned 400 calories but isn't giving me any calories back on my flex meal plan?

@blamm83 Welcome to Fitbit Community! Manual activities (and third party apps) override your tracker's data, so you may see a calorie discrepancy. In order to see those calories on MyFitnessPal, make sure to link both accounts first. You can link them here: Fitbit App Gallery. Let me know if that works, okay?
