Calorie Count

Ok so whenever I add activity to my activity meter it will only add about 100 extra calories to my burn meter, even if it tells me I burned more doing my activity. For example, today I went to the gym and walked the dogs. The activity log says I burned 250 cals doing this. But my burn meter only added 100 calories so it says 1870- 100 more than if I hadn't worked out and walked the dogs. So is there something wrong with my meter or am I only burning 100 calories extra for working out for an hour and walking the dog for 20 min?? That can not be right. I'm so confused.

the burn meter doesn't add the cals you would have burned if you were sedentary for the same amount of time. Does that make sense?

I mean add them to what I burn during the day. It use to add what I burned during an activity to what I burn during the day but it has only been adding 100 cals rather than all of them.

It wont add every calorie you burned because it already take in account for what you may have already burned according to what you have your activity level set at.
