Syncing Myfitnesspal with Garmin Connect - health query

Hi

I have managed to sync MFP with GC today and it correctly linked up my activities which is great thanks.

However I have a query on whether it should sync my health data (obviously weight but would be great if other metrics came from that are automatically uploaded from my Tanita)

As I initially manually entered in a different weight to MFP when I was setting up to what was correct on GC - and the two different values were not sync'ed?

Is this expected behaviour i.e. only syncing will be calories information?

Thanks in advance

Hi there

Despite not getting a reply - I managed to sync GC with MFP the next time I uploaded data and it works perfectly now.

Hopefully you have had the same experience

I have been using GC with MFP for 3 days now and the weight has never synced from GC to MFP. Anyone have ideas on this?

According to Michael over at MFP this is what is sent each way:

MFP sends to GC:
- Calories Consumed
- Exercise name and calories
- Exercise start time and exercise duration

MFP receives from GC:
- Weight entries
- Calorie adjustment from exercise
