I am fairly new to this site, but what I have already learned is that your calories burned (as it is computed on this site), might be off. I can say with certainty that was definitely off in my case. Probably close to 200 depending on my activity. To fix this, I went out and purchased a heart rate monitor (the Polaris XT4). I still log all of my calories using this site and when I log my calories burned, I take that from my trusted friend. I would strongly suggest goIng out and investing in one that way you can accurately track your exercise calories along with your food calories. I wish you nothing but the best in reaching and exceeding all of your fitness goals! Remember, this is not a "diet", this is a lifestyle change, you will have great days and days where you are in need of some extra motivation! You can add me if you want and I'll do whatever I can to help you achieve your goals!
