Can anyone please advise me? Fitbit says I burned 200 cals playing squash but MFP said it should be about 600 - which one is most likely to be right?

I want the 2 to work together and am desperate to lose weight so I dont want to get it wrong.

Thanks x:wink:

    I have noticed that MFP has been off on a lot of things i would go with your Fitbit.

    Remember that FitBit is only counting your steps - NOT how hard you are exerting yourself. Sure if it's running, that kind of works out because you are taking many more steps. But playing squash you may be working yourself a lot harder than just the steps you are taking. I usually go with what MFP says, but you can always meet the two numbers in the middle if you want to be conservative.
