    Not very. It seriously overestimates my calorie burn on swimming, if my weight loss really is 3500 calories a pound over several months.

    I found mfp to be very high for swimming estimates too.

    For 50 minutes of breastroke it gives me 1108 calories, my HRM gives me 516 on a good day.

    That sounds like a challenge to up your intensity.

    I'm 7 months pregnant, upping my intensity can wait. I am proud of myself each day for just getting in the pool at this point.

    lord where do they keep the sweet husband type!? + is that your dog ? #Loveit <3
    + Actually, my wife's dog - It was her part of her birthday. Sweet husband? I'll tell my wife that so she can laugh. My super power is sarcasm so it cuts back on the 'sweet' factor.

    ummm come on! the HRM and the dog i mean you pretty much ace it there- Lol B) they flag on us, really amount of awesomeness here
