Ok, so i had to look up what a fitbit is because i was reallly confused. Also, can everyone explain these other acronyms too..ex: TDEE and HiiT.. HRM
HIIT = High Intensity Interval Training (In my case jogging 5 min on flat surface, 5 min on an incline, alternate)
HRM = Heart Rate MonitorI have a question for everyone. Why does MFP add your exercise calories to your balance? Can anyone explain the whole process? Does it tell everyone to eat 1200 calories a day or is it based on your weight?MFP says i burn 786 calories on the elliptical although the elliptical says something like 850.
Most important thing is to log everything so you know what to adjust if it's not working well or you're losing too quickly.0 -

Thanks for all your input. So when i log my elliptical into MFP... if i needed to eat those calories... i would eat half the calories they add to my balance?0 -

You can change the default calories to be whatever you like. You don't have to accept what the MFP app says you spent in calories. That makes it easier so you don't have to try to calculate what half the calories were when added to your daily total allowance. I'm lazy and just add in 200 half the time.0 -
considering you height, your weight is not really bad. be proud of that fact!:flowerforyou:0
