FIT BIT!

If the fitbit takes in account your calories burned, why do you have to log activities? HELP ME!

    Lots of info on this if you do a search. In a nutshell:
    I sync it to MFP. I set MFP activity level to sedentary and wear my fitbit all day. When it syncs to Fitbit and then MFP it will let you know the extra caliries you can eat for exercise. It's great for general walking, walking for exercise and running. Some people say out it in your foot for cycling but not tried that.

    If you do other exercise like circuit or weight training or swimming, set the stop watch when you start exercising and stop it when you finish. Then add caliries burn from this exercise to futbit website or app manually. You can either do this by using database to pick your exercise type and say how long you were doing it, or if you get a calorie value from a HRM, then input that.
