Fitness data being deleted by itself

Hi, how is this possible and why is it happening - Health app and Fitness app deleting entries from Garmin Connect one by one all by themselves? I recorded it:

Health app not importing from Connect and deleting Connect data Hi there, several days ago IOS Health app stopped importing workouts from Garmin Connect. All permissions in Health for Connect are enabled, and Connect is on first place (priority) listed because of multiple sources. All that is in order and all was working without problems till several days ago. So, Connect is syncing everything from Garmin watch (Epix 2) fine, but there's a problem with Health importing that data from Connect app. Meaning, all the other apps are not receiving data - Fitness app, Myfitnesspal etc. I have both iphone and epix watch updated to latest updates. I found on discussions.apple.com following suggestion to try: 1) Sign out of your account on Garmin Connect. (More > Settings > Sign Out) 2) Force Close Garmin Connect and Apple Health apps. 2) Delete the Garmin Connect App and then re-download it. 3) Open Garmin Connect - However, instead of signing-in using your existing account, create a new account. 4) Skip Device Setup until you are at the screen that asks what you want to mainly use the Garmin Connect app for. 5) Only choose only ‘Health’ option. The Apple Health app then pops up and links to your Apple Health account. 6) Sign out of the newly created Garmin account (More > Settings > Sign Out) 7) Now... sign back into your older existing Garmin Connect account. Did it and it solved nothing. Also, not only that it doesn't sync new data but when I go to Health and check recorded Connect entries from before - I see them being automatically deleted in front of my eyes, one by one! Workouts, steps etc. What else is there to try?

Turning off the sync between my Garmin Connect and Apple Health How do I turn off the sync between my Garmin Connect account and Apple Health? I would prefer the workout data that I collect while wearing my Garmin watch not show up in in my Apple Health app.

Someone replied in the above forum; "Garmin Connect is not fully supported with the Fitness app on iPhones. When you record an activity, the fitness app record doubles the calories of your exercise."
