Fitbit and Myfitnesspal not staying linked

Ever since the time change this past Sunday, I have been having problems with my fitbit app.  First, it wouldn't allow me to set my hourly activity hours.  I think that had to do with the time change so I waited and it did seem to resolve itself.  However, it's now stopped syncing with myfitnesspal.  I did the troubleshooting steps last night:

 

1. Sign into your Fitbit dashboard.
2. Click the gear icon in the upper right corner and select "Settings" from the drop-down menu.
3. On the left side of your screen click "Applications."
4. Under MyFitnessPal, click "Revoke Access."
5. You can then re-link the two accounts by clicking here.

 

They re-connected after that, but then this morning they were disconnected again.  I tried to re-link once again, and now fitbit is receiving my calories in information from myfitnesspal, but myfitnesspal isn't received info for my steps.  What is going on??  Is this a secret plot like Apple with the iphones to get me to get the newest gadget that's come out???  I joke.  But really....

Hi Edson I actually figured out the problem a few hours after posting.  I hadn't selected "fitbit" in the steps section of myfitnesspal.  Once I did that, the steps started appearing in myfitnesspal the next day!
