    My activity tracker is a high-end Garmin Vivosmart Heart Rate + GPS device so I think that it is pretty accurate for calorie expenditures as well as Intensity Minutes of exercise. It is not the toy-like fitbit that many use; I had one of those and returned it immediately! A true joke! GOOD NEWS! I lost 1 pound today as per my Eat Smart Digital Scale!
    Thanks to everyone and again, keep it coming!

    These are my numbers from yesterday: 1,778 Consumed -787* Active = 991Net
    * Active = Total Calories - BMR Calories; so I ate/consumed 1778+ calories and my goal as per MFP is 1700 cal per day. Thus I tried to not "eat back" many Active calories.

    * 58% of 1,700 Net Calorie Goal
