Calorie Adjustment gone crazy for activity

Pitz66
over 8 years ago
Last 2 days calorie adjustment seems crazy with MFP again. I ran an hour, did a weights session, made my daily step goal easily and Garmin decided that I needed to consume less food than normal.

Garmin Connect kilo-joule adjustment -4,996

my exercise is

Running (jogging), 10.7 kph (5.6 min per km) 3,343
Strength training (weight lifting, weight training) 1,523


So work more eat less.
It is doing the same again today.

Please please Garmin fix this.

    If you click the question mark in MFP it will give you the figures used for the calculation

    what are they?

    INdeed - looks like on the MFP side. the problem is obviously here -

    where somehow it's taking a not-full-day amount and figuring it for somethign much less over the whole day!


    might be worth resetting the two integrations.

    Most people i think are doing it in calories, not sure if that could be a problem

    Mine is going insane too. I didn't realize it was but MFP kept screaming at me to eat more. This is today -- after I already deleted a 330+/- adjustment once. I went back and it's been doing this for the last week at least if I have activities I'm recording on my vivoactive HR.
