How many calories am I burning?

Every time I do a cardio machine workout, the calories burned that the machine gives me, my Apple Watch, and MFP are all VERY different. I know none of them are 100% accurate but which should I assume is the closest to the actual amount I burned? MFP is giving me the most with my Apple Watch giving me the least. The Apple Watch also senses I am using the machine and records it as a workout so I assumed it would sync to the machine and have the same calories burned but no. I do adjust the machine settings to my weight and use the heart rate sensors in hopes to get the most accurate amount.

Pick one. If you are not losing or are losing too fast, adjust your calorie burns.2

Thanks for advice. I also try not to eat back exercise calories. Unless I for some reason net less than 1200 afterwards which RARELY happens. So it’s not like it makes a huge difference it’s really just about me being obsessive & wanting to know everything lol1 -
I would use the lower count and then adjust as needed.1
