Anyone else s calories not syncing with my fitness pal. Last night I ate 1300 on mfp and fitbit said I had only eaten 800. Annoying as I want accuracy trying to loose weight.

@DanaT A warm welcome to the Community! You should be seeing the same amount of calories that you're allow to eat in both accounts. I would like you to unlink and relink the apps to see if you see the same data. 

 

Let me know how it goes.

I've just got this problem:

Previously MFP and FitBit were in sync but when I updated the iPhone app for Fitbit yesterday it seems to have gone wrong and FitBit is double-counting a lot of my food, so it's showing that I have eaten more than I have yesterday and today.

 

Is there a fix/workaround/recognised bug?

 

Thanks

@ElizabethC1 It's nice to have you on board! Are you getting double entries for the food you're logging? Are you seeing the same information in the online Dashboard? Please try logging out and force quitting the app. 

 

Let me know how it goes.

It seems to happen when I multi-add in MFP - so if I add "yesterday's breafast" it doubles up on FitBit, whereas if I add the 3 components of yesterday's breakfast separately then it's fine and syncs over properly.

 

The numbers are the same between the phone app and the website - it's FitBit's data that seems to pick up the same thing twice.
