Questions on Fitbit tracker & syncing
Hello! I am a Cronometer newbie, so these questions may seem pretty basic. I've synced my Fitbit to Cronometer, and my weight loss goal is 0.5 lbs per week.
I am finding that nearly everyday the tracker says I still have anywhere between 500-1000 calories left to eat, even if I have eaten plenty during the day. I somehow find this doesn't work for my weight loss goals. Why does this happen, and what can I do about it?
Somehow, eating 2500-3000 calories per day (which is what this would amount to) is not the path to weight loss for me!

Hi Koppakabana,
Can you check your settings in your Fitbit account - if it is importing a higher amount of calories burned than you would expect from the activity you have done that day, double-check the weight entered in your profile.
Best,

I'm not sure if you're male or female or heavy etc. but I'm a 155lb 5.6 female and I synced my fitbit and regularly get an extra 1K cals added to my TDEE. I eat accordingly and find it matches my observed TDEE pretty closely.
