Ok so I got a polar f6 the other day and I love it. Question is, have any of you guys worn yours all day, from the time you get up until the next morning just to see how many calories you actually burn in 24 hours? I was thinking about it but I wasn't sure if it would work. Like is there a cut off time on your monitor or a calorie limit?

    I've not taken mine off for 4 weeks (except to shower!)
    It will automatically tell me total calories in 24 hours, but usually doesn't happen often b/c I have to shower and i turn it off write down the totals and then put it back on after shower. I then add the first number to what ever the number says at 24 hour mark. Let me know if it's close to MFP.
