Under the amount of steps that I take it doesn't show any calories burned. The only calories burned that it shows are the ones for the activities I enter. Is this right?

    Lol. I just noticed that it said canaries instead of calories LOL. And I can't figure out how to fix it.

    Not sure what exactly you are talking about in MFP, but I use Map My Walk to track steps and it auto syncs to My Fitness Pal and lists the calories burned and adjustments for actual weight and such. I just start workout and pause when I stop. It has different settings for walking, walking dog and walking on a treadmill. I use the walking setting while cleaning or shopping even gardening as well since when I used FitBit, it was completely inaccurate compared to a regular pedometer. Map My Walk also can track distance and speed. Since I have been using it, I feel like I finally know actual calories expended for my body.
