I am trying to connect my progress with my fitbit flex with my fitness plan app together to see my progress with food/calories consumed and with my steps? Is this even an option? THANKS!!

@esands It's great to have you in the Community! I apologize for the delayed reply.
Yes, it's an option you can connect My Fitness Pal with Fitbit by doing the following:
Go to www.fitbit.com/apps/myfitnesspal and click “Get Started”. You will then be prompted to either log in or sign up with your MyFitnessPal account. Once connected, you will be able to view the foods and activities that you log on your MyFitnessPal account on your Fitbit Dashboard.
Here's some additional informationt that might be helpful for you
From the "Check In" section of your MyFitnessPal account, you will see the steps taken and sleep tracked by your Fitbit device. You will also see a calorie adjustment from Fitbit. Whenever MyFitnessPal receives calorie burn data from your Fitbit Tracker, it compares that to the projected calorie burn for your account and adjusts your calorie goal accordingly.
Keep in mind that if you sync your Fitbit at 11:00 AM, MyFitnessPal will only have information about your Fitbit calorie burn data through 11:00 AM that day. If only a partial day's worth of data is available, MyFitnessPal will combine the actual data from your Fitbit with an estimate of your calorie burn for the remainder of the day based on the daily activity level you selected when creating your MyFitnessPal account. This allows MyFitnessPal to create a more accurate estimate for your daily calorie burn based on the best data they have available from your Fitbit tracker at that time.
