Body Media Fit Calories vs. Heart Rate Monitor Calories

I just finished with Insanity Cardio Circuit and my Body Media Fit came back with a 332 burn. However, my Heart Rate Monitor came back with 654. Today was the first day with the Body Media Fit. That's a huge difference!!! Which one do I trust . I have been using a HRM for a long time to calculate my calories burned to estimate calories to consume. I'm just concerned with calories burned during a workout, I am hoping I haven't be over estimating my calorie intake. Anyone else with this issue.

    Go with your HRM!i wear one for all exercises. Today I done a Meta Fit class and burned 228 calories in 25 minutes. I'm 61 somebody younger would probably burn more calories than me ????
