    MFP isn't ALWAYS inaccurate, though. I double and sometimes triple check my burns in MFP and other sites and they're usually around the same.

    Thanks for telling me about this website. i'm going to use it and compare it to what I find oh here. I think its pretty accurate I do wear a HRM when I work out and adjust my training accordingly. Thank you for the tip.

    Yes.

    I use HRM for GROSS calculation and then convert to NET calorie burn.

    You'll have to workout more to reach the same goal, but it's worth it.

    When I stopped using the MFP exercise calculation, and started using HRM,
    my weight started dropping twice as fast.

    It might not make such a difference for much larger people, but I'm 122lbs at 5'0 ft,
    and it makes a huge difference for me.
