Hi,
just wondering if any one has been using a hrm while on the fit plus.

How did you find the comparison because I am wondering if the Wii over estimates the calories burned.
I would imagine the HRM is the most reliable.

I'm thinking I might not eat all my Wii calories just in case so looking for some info until I can get a HRM.
Thanks

    that's so disappointing isn't it. I know I'm working up a sweat on the Wii but to find out it's I'm eating back calories I haven't even used is not good news.

    I don't have a HRM but my Wii Fit calories are way lower than my MFP calories.
