Over the past few days the exact same exercises have ballooned in calories burned. Has this happened to anyone else?

Tuesday: Bike Moderate effort- 545 calories burned 36 minutes
Strength training 272 42 minutes

Today- Bike 1090 30 minutes
Strength training- 794 51 minutes

Thank you

    Check your weight. If your weight is wrong it will really mess up the numbers. There was another poster not to long ago who had a similar problem and when I looked at her ticker it said she had 600kg or some such insane number to lose.

    Thank you. That was the issue. It said I had another 500 lbs to lose.
