Does anyone choose Fitbit over MFP? I feel like I get a more accurate read from Fitbit. I love the support I get from MFP, but find the other benefits from Fitbit to possibly be better. I'm still trying it out, so I'm curious to what others think/do.

    MFP is basing calorie burns off of a very general estimate. For most of us, it's going to be much less accurate than the calorie estimate from a device like a Fitbit.

    I track my calories eaten on MFP but, use my FitBit for information in regards to calories burned and daily targets.. it updates MFP automatically once I sync so it's all in one place.
