What is the difference between calories and net calories when you view your reports?

Thanks

    Calories are the total number of calories you have eaten

    Net calories are the total number of calories eaten minus the number of calories burned

    Hope this answers your question ; )

    I think it's the difference between total calories intake & the remaining calories after you burn some
