According to the GC help page, "calories remaining" is supposed to pull your target calories from MFP, then use that - along with 'active calories' - to calculate whether you're under or over that benchmark.
>> Calories Remaining – When you have determined a MyFitnessPal calorie goal, we’ll help you track how many daily calories you are above or below your goal. The formula is calorie goal minus net calories.

That's sure not what I'm getting.
For example, for March 13th:
* goal = 1390
* consumed = 1639 (or 1638, as GC reports, 1 off from what MFP has)
* active = 301 (unlike the 267 that MFP reports)
Means the correct value is (1390+301)-1639 = 52
And when I go to "Daily Summary" for that day, that' what I get. (Well, 53, since there's that mysterious 1 calorie difference from MFP's value).
But when I bring up the "Calories Remaining" report, I get a value of 729 on that graph for that day.
?!!
Every other day's value is equally inaccurate. I have no idea what that Report is reporting - but it certainly isn't calories remaining. It's not even showing the value that GC calculates (on Daily Summary).
Second problem - when I click "four weeks" (or longer) on that report, I'm told "You have no data for this time period."
I /do/ have data for it, and I can see it if I go back week by week.
So that's messed up too.
Is this just me, or are others finding that the "Calories Remaining" report is completely wrong?
The recent troubles with coordinating with MFP may have gotten cleared up today, as I read in another thread, but that hasn't fixed the "Calories Remaining" report at all.
