    Can I ask why 2500 calories burned and not 3500?

    For people of different levels....but, 3500 is 1 pound lost for those who go for it

    Ooooohh that kinda makes it better... I may have to shoot for that! Looks like I'll have to start getting "creative". :wink:

    DO TELL, DO TELL!!!:devil:

    I did wear my HRM from the time I went for a walk (2 pm) until when I went to bed (11) and it said I burnt 2322 calories!
    Anyway - I have a session with my trainer this afternoon, and tomorrow another XFit class - I'll need to find an extra 57 minutes to finish off the minutes!

    Finally hopped on the elliptical last night.

    Wed - 60 mins on elliptical, 556 calories burned.

    I'll still push to get goal when I can. It's doubtful I'll make it at this point, but I will still push. Its better than just giving up.

    So..... am I allowed to use my work time and cals burned? I only work 2 days a week and it's not in my "settings" for calculating my daily cals... It's pretty strenuous work, but wanted to make sure before using it!

    I would count it if your setting are set for sedentary....maybe just use a max of 2 hours...I'm thinking of doing that for my workdays too

    What does everyone else think?

    Good thing you mentioned it, I checked and I'm set to lightly active. It's gonna be SUPER hard to reach my desired goals, I guess this week will be more of a "let's see how I do" one.. lol

    I would add them Jessica. For lightly active I imagine working around the house, cleaning, cooking, playing with the kiddo. I think you are working hard there. If you don't want to overestimate, maybe take off a few hundred cals and add the rest. That way you get most of them, but some of them would be what you normally would be doing.
