I saw an entry that said that I could merge with fitness pal. How can I use the fitness pal nutrition values instead of all the restaurant values that my flex shows. I don't eat out that much and when I make an entree at home I enter the nutrion values from the menu. It seems that the restaurant values overrun the home made or package values.

@Shackamaxon It's great to see you active in the Community! I apologize for the delayed reply.
You can integrate My Fitness Pal with Fitbit, go here and click “Get Started”. You will then be prompted to either log in or sign up with your MyFitnessPal account.
Once connected, you will be able to view the foods and activities that you log on your MyFitnessPal account on your Fitbit Dashboard.
From the "Check In" section of your MyFitnessPal account, you will see the steps taken and sleep tracked by your Fitbit device.
You will also see a calorie adjustment from Fitbit. Whenever MyFitnessPal receives calorie burn data from your Fitbit Tracker, it compares that to the projected calorie burn for your account and adjusts your calorie goal accordingly.
Keep in mind that if you sync your Fitbit at 11:00 AM, MyFitnessPal will only have information about your Fitbit calorie burn data through 11:00 AM that day. If only a partial day's worth of data is available, MyFitnessPal will combine the actual data from your Fitbit with an estimate of your calorie burn for the remainder of the day based on the daily activity level you selected when creating your MyFitnessPal account. This allows MyFitnessPal to create a more accurate estimate for your daily calorie burn based on the best data they have available from your Fitbit tracker at that time.
