Calories are wrong

5949194 16 days ago

I’m a new user here. I’ve had a fitbit for years and used it to track my calories and to keep my weight steady.

But my new lily2 is showing a wrong calorie burn, if I follow the burned calories from my lily then I need to eat 200 to 300 calories more during the day, which doesn’t make sense to me…

I understand that the devices are different, but such a difference cannot be correct.

How can I fix this?

Calories are determined by the user profile and the activity profile (if recording timed activities). You may use the FAQ below for reference on how to update this information.

Changing Device and User Settings in Garmin Connect

Also, your heart rate is another key component of the calorie calculation that takes place on your Garmin device. Look in your Garmin Connect account at the heart rate graph to ensure that it displays an accurate heart rate for the time period in question. If you feel that the heart rate is not accurate, reference the FAQ below for common troubleshooting.
