@Fenian Welcome to the Community! I apologize for the delayed reply.
MyFitnessPal pulls your calorie burn directly from the total daily calorie Fitbit. 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 Fitbit's reported calorie burn is lower than MyFitnessPal’s estimate.
To accurately reflect any extra calories you're burning, Fitbit uses this data to adjust your daily MyFitnessPal calorie goal. For example, if Fitbit shows 1723 and MFP shows 1628 the Fitbit Calorie Adjustment will be 95.
