FitDay not providing correct total calorie figure

(CLICK HERE here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

On FitDay, in the "Calories" column, if you add up all the calories of the foods, it comes to 2176 calories

However, the total macros come out to 118.5g fat
97.7g carbs
221.7g protein
= 2344 calories.

Any idea why there is such a difference when comparing the total calories column to counting up the calories manually based on macros?

Would need a screenshot to tell you. Maybe Fitday is smart enough to subtract the fiber out of the overall carbs since it's indigestible.

Here's the screenshot. At the bottom, you can see that I had 17g of fiber.

In your case you're right. Some of your foods have bad information in them. Diamond walnuts would be an example.

True. I just noticed that i went over a little for my macros, but the calories stayed almost identical to what I was planning for. Anyway, thanks for your help.
