Are the calorie calculators on this site accurate?

I just feel that it's telling me i'm burning more than I actually am, or maybe i'm thinking i'm doing more than I am. But i don't think i'm burning 114 calories walking 20 minutes when i'm 145 pounds and 6'1". Thanks!

    this.

    but even a $500 heart rate monitor is only going to be an estimate.

    it's all estimates. Some sites better than others...but it's ALL estimates, the food calories as well as the exercise calories. There is no way to know with any accuracy from a website EXACTLY what anyone burns under any given conditions...
