Can anyone help me with kCal / Cal? Quick question :)

Posts: 258 Member
Hi guys, MapMyRun told me I burned 333kcal, I want to convert this to cals (so I can record it in MFP accurately).
When I've used online converters they say they are the same, but I've read contradicting info...

Can anyone confirm??? Many thanks!!!

  • 333 kcal IS 333 calories?

    Did you mean kJ converted, or?

    A kcal is 1,000 actual calories.
    What you see on labels, heart rate monitors, MFP is really KCal.
    To simply, people just say "Calories"
