MyFitnessPal pulls your calorie burn directly from Fitbit daily total. We then project forward to the end of the day based on your calorie burn so far. If this full-day number is different than MyFitnessPal’s estimate for your daily calorie burn, an adjustment will be made to your caloric intake goal. This adjustment can either be positive or negative. If the adjustment is positive, this indicates that your calorie burn for the day as reported by Fitbit is greater than MyFitnessPal’s estimate. If the adjustment is negative this indicates that the Fitbit's reported calorie burn is lower than MyFitnessPal’s estimate.
You can see the adjustment that Fitbit does when you go to MFP Exercise below "Cardiovascular" you'll see Fitbit Calorie Adjustment, click on the "!" icon and you'll see it
