Fitbit Newbie & My Fitness Pal User

Hi

This morning I have used by Cross Trainer and noticed that the calories it says I burnt was a lot less than those My Fitness Pal predicts.  I logged the time of the exercise so that Fitbit "knows".  My questions is this: Does Fitbit alter the calories to what it thinks I have used or does it use MFP's prediction??  Thanks

@Dolly-Daydream Did you use your tracker and manually logged the activity? MyFitnessPal and manual activities override your tracker's data to ensure that your steps won't be counted twice.

Also, MyFitnessPal changed the way they handle the Fitbit adjustment. Here are our two primary resources - be sure to check these out:
