Ok, it's 63 calories you've burned. It does calculate it, just enter "aerobics" and enter how long, then it pops up.0

Go to the exercise tab, click on add exercise from cardiovascular and search for aerobics. I've entered mine under aerobics, general before but there may be a light one to choose from. Enter the minutes you spent and it will calculate how many burned, then check the box and click the add to meal button and it will calculate that in your total and give you that many more calories to eat today since you should eat your exercise calories.
Many people here love their HRM's (heart rate monitor) since they are more accurate of how many calories you burned moreso than how MFP calculates it or what workout machines calculate. But I've never found myself to have enough extra money to buy one, and I use the rough estimates of MFP and have managed to lose a pretty consistent pound a week, so it can't be TOO far off.0 -

Are you sure you are on the right screen? You shouldn't have to hit enter or anything, as soon as you enter anything in the minutes box, the calorie box should calculate and then hit add to meal. If you still can't get it I would say send the same message board post on the technical questions message board, maybe there is something wrong with it. Though I just tried it on mine and it calculate just fine.0 -
