Another MFP ?
About exercise calories
I notice that the more I exercise and as steps are added through my tracker, my exercise calories go down.
After the gym this morning - it showed I had 349 exercise calories.
I have since done an extra 2,000 steps and now it's showing my exercise calories at 259. I did have bfast since then. Does it take calories from your daily calories & you exercise calories each time you eat? Could that be it?
ETa: that can't be it. It doesn't add up.
Hmmmm
I start with 1350
It showed 349 exercise calories
So it said 1350 + 349 = 1699
Then I had breakfast
Now it says 1350 - 335 + 259 = 1274
Why is it only showing 259 as exercise calories when I had 349?

Hmmm, I'm using MFP and that is not happening to me. Is it just today? It may just be a glitch.

Re: Another MFP ?
No it happened yesterday too
I noticed it and figured I'd check again today. And it happened again

Re: Another MFP ?
Google is telling me that it's happening bc I am not as active as the day goes on
How that makes sense, I do not know.
So I earned 349 exercise calories from going to the gym. But then the rest of the day I just walked around, errands, and sat at my desk and worked for 5 hours - which lowered my exercise calories
I don't get it. Thankfully, I haven't been banking on those calories. But it's pissing me off

Re: Another MFP ?
Do you have MFP somehow linked to your tracker or steps? I don't so my exercise calories don't change. Maybe turning it off is an option?

I do have it linked to my tracker. If I don't, I won't get credit for the steps everyday. I don't know which is better lol

Ah ok- that makes sense. I don't know which would be better. I don't have it linked to my steps but I guess if I was lazy one day, in theory that would change how many calories I should eat. Without it linked, I wouldn't know but I do like getting credit for my exercise and not worrying about it going down.
