Hey! Does anyone have one of these? I have a pink that has petite written on it. I accidentally threw the box away... Anyway, I am trying to figure out the calories counted on here. I did an elipitical machine yesterday at the gym and it said I burned close to 400 calories. My watch said it was aqlmost 800... Just curious if I have to set something on the watch or what I have to do. Please help!!!

    You definitely have to set up your watch. You need to tell it how old you are and what you weigh for starters. If the watch has a way to calculate or enter your fitness level, that's even better.
