I noticed that fitbit does not do the macro information since it imports summaries from MFP for food.
If you add food in Fitbit, will it sync to MFP?
What do yall suggest and prefer to use?

food added to fitbit does not sync to mfp. if you enter food directly to fitbit you will get macros on the fitbit page/app. there is no way to show net carbs I am aware of on fitbit web page or app so you have to subtract fiber from carbs manually which means having to open the fitbit log in a browser to check net carbs if mobile.
i preferred mfp for tracking macros (and food in general), and net macros with the tampermonkey for chrome extension, but there were so many syncing issues and frequent syncing outages that I now track all my food right in fitbit and quit using mfp completely. any foods I used to eat that I cant find in fitbit's food database I will just look up in mfp on a desktop browser and create a new food for myself in fitbit's web interface and star it so it is in my favorites list as well.
