How do you log your steps from a pedometer onto myfitnesspal? Can anyone tell me how many steps on the pedometer equate to a mile? Thanks!

    Hhmm, my pedometer tells me how many calories I've burnt so thats what I would log if I were doing it. If not, your best guess would be to put how long you've been walking for at whatever speed your walking at. Steps into a mile is very unreliable as it depends on height and speed (since you usually take bigger steps the faster you walk)

    1.728 mile = 5471 steps =105.5 cal if you can do the math I can't LOL
