I use My fitness Pal for logging in food, however, when it syncs with fitbit, my calories left are decreased instead of increased. It messes up MFP really bad. Any suggestions?

@Nanalowe I apologize for the delayed reply. Well Fitbit will do a calorie adjustment to MFP and based on that the calories that you're allow to eat will decrease or increase. If Fitbit reports that you burned more calories in Fitbit than MFP the adjustment will be positive, if it's the opposite the adjustment will be negative. 

 

You can see if MFP how much the adjustment was and also how this apps are calculating it by going to your Dashboard, click on exercise and there you'll see Fitbit calorie adjustment.
