so I have a garmin vivofit when I sync it w/ mfp the calorie burned amount isn't near what it is when I add in excersizes on this app? Like I walked for 60 min straight burned 300 something calories, but when i synced my vivofit for the steps it only says 100 something? So my ? Is should I put in the excersize in mfp, because I was excersizing for 60 min straight, or should I just let my steps throughout the whole day be my excersizing calories?? Does this ? Make sense to anyone? I defiantly do not want to cheat and put in more calories burned then I really am?

I use a Up Move to track steps and cardio...the calories it says I have burnt on the Up app is considerably more than the calories that sync to MFP. And less than if I put the exercise straight into MFP (with no gadgets)
My Move said 350 for swimming, MFP said 300 if I just put it straight in, but through the sync that is now 260. So yes makes sense.
Personally I am leaving it that way and not worrying unless I get very tired or very hungry. Or start to vanish (HAHA!) I don't eat all my exercise anyway as am dubious about burns...0 -
Yeah I'm just debating which one to use. For me MFP is giving me a lot more calories burned. So, today I'm just gonna use my step tracker and see at the end of the day. I just want something super accurate. Guess I should just go w/ my step tracker.0
