The message states that it is already disconnected. I suggest rather than reinstalling the apps, disconnect/connect from both sides using the web interface.

Login to MyFitnessPal using the web interface…

Login to MyFitnessPal using the web interface, then disconnect from Garmin Connect: APPS > Your Apps > Garmin Connect > DISCONNECT
Log out of MyFitnessPal
Login to Garmin Connect Web using the web interface. Go to Health Stats > Calories In/Out > Disconnect from MyFitnessPal (if it's already disconnected it will say "Connect to MyFitnessPal")
Log out of Garmin Connect Web.
Log in to Garmin Connect Web. Go to Health Stats > Calories In/Out > Connect to MyFitnessPal

Agree
Enter your MyFitnessPal Username and Password

Allow

Rather than "Connect to MyFitnessPal," it should now say "Disconnect from MyFitnessPal," meaning it is connected correctly.

I keep trying to link my fitness pal and the connect app it keeps getting me to login online to do it but the little sync flame won’t load fully

See if toggling the 2 interfaces works better from the web sites for each side, as mentioned here - Garmin connect app won't connect with MyFitnessPal. I have installed both apps and installed them again, but it won't work

I've had my connect working fine until after 2 recent updates. No the calories and steps stopped syncing so I tried to disconnect and reconnect and I'm stuck in a cycle where once I select allow at the bottom it reloads with the red disconnected banner
