Could anybody help me with converting KCal into cal? I bought a wrist pedometer yesterday, plugged in my info and I am not able to figure out how to convert. I e-mailed the company and have not heard back, I googled it and that told me 1 Kcal is 1000 calories. It would be nicem but there is no way I burned 138,000 calories at the gym this morning running,

Thank you for your help
Hope all of your goals are coming nicely.

    :laugh: :laugh: Think of all the extra food you could eat!!!:laugh: :laugh: I'm interested to see the other posts as I have two pedometers that I haven't used to any capacity and when I did, I didn't understand the conversions.
  • No kidding. I would also be shrinking right before your eyes. That would even be nicer.

    From what I was able to find, a kcal and Calorie are the same thing.
