Hey everyone!

I posted this in the FitBit group but am reposting here as well. Quick question: Should I follow my Fitbit calorie allowance or myfitness pal? My MFP calories don't match with my fitbit and it's a bit confusing to me. :(

Happy Wednesday!

    Not too different today. It says I can have 1250 but every day is different.

    I follow MFP. I use the FitBit to calculate my steps/calorie burn throughout the day, but I do not anything on FitBit, only on FMP. :)

    I'm not sure about fitbit, but my bodymedia is way different than MFP's. On lazy days, I burn about 2,300, and on active days, anywhere from 2,600-3,000. ;) I do zumba, and I lift, and try to not sit on my butt the entire day. Sometimes I succeed. Lol.
