Red ring tracking minutes not calories

Hi

my daughter was given a apple 3 watch. My watch shows calories burned in the move ring. Hers is showing minutes in the move ring instead of calories. How do I fix?

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
