I've just started using this today on Fitbit blaze and entered my food on my fitness pal. When syncing with Fitbit app it has different calories to those and Fitbit
Also it says I still have 330 calories left on mfp but on FB it says I'm over?
Also calories in V calories burnt on FB are less in than out?
Any ideas please
Thanks

It's nice to see our Community is growing @Sporticus2011! Welcome! Man HappyTo fix this discrepancy I'd suggest you do the following (please know this should be done through your online Dashboard):

1. Log in to your Fitbit dashboard and click Log > Activities. 
2. Verify that the activity was not logged twice. 
3. Go to your Account Settings (found under your profile picture), and scroll down to Preferences. Disable Calorie Estimation. 
4. Turn off Personalized Meal Plans in your Fitbit account. 
5. Wear your Fitbit for all activities. 
6. Log your cardio exercise on the MyFitnessPal site. 

Hope this helps, let me know how it goes! Smiley Happy
