in Getting Started
So I'm new to this. My phone automatically counts my steps. Then on this app it converts those steps into calories... Do I not log my workout in then? Cause wouldn't that be doubling the extra calories? Please help

    I put my phone aside when I workout so that those steps aren't counted. Then add the workout separately. Best of luck on your journey!

    You can disable the steps on the device

    Log anything that isn't step-based (walking and running)

    What app are you using to track the steps on the phone? Is it one that MFP syncs with? If so, the sync'ing process will handle it for you.
