I get mine to update, but I use the MyFitnessPal app to enter my meals throughout the day then I refresh the Calories In/Out in the Garmin Connect app. You have to enter your weight first before in MyFitnessPal even if you’ve added it before on the same day. So,
1) Click Calories In/Out in Garnin Connect
2) Click the blue Login to MyFitnessPal button in Garmin Connect
3) Add your meals in MyFitnessPal
4) Add your weight in MyFitnessPal
5) Switch over to Garmin Connect
6) Refresh Calories In/Out in Garmin Connect
Be aware that Garmin Connect will not update prior day calories. So, if you miss a day it’s gone.
Don’t understan why people will use MFP if it’s not for the free version. Yes, it have Garmin integration, but is it exact. NO. And why, because everybody is free to add food , and everybody is not so critical to what they add. In my opinion Cronometer is a much better choise when it come to pay'd apps. They not have Garmin integration, that’s the only possible against, BUT, they have tracking of vitamins, minerales and they have a team that only sit and check what people suggest to put out in public. You can still add your own food and recepies, but only for your own use. If you want to add in public, everything is checked by their team. I should wish it was a integration with Garmin, it is sort of as it sync your sleep,weight,bodyfat and heart rate, but for me and others if you really want to keep track of what you eat it’s far far better than MFP.
