    hi all,
    the stats this site generates fro calories burned are much higher than my garmin watch - normally about 50% higher. Do you think I should go with the lower ones from the watch or stick with what this site tells me?

    (cos I'm on for about 8,000 if I go with the higher numbers!)

    If you have a HRM, use those. They're more accurate and are what you should be using to calculate the exercise calories you eat back. Just adjust your goal for this challenge accordingly. I also found MFP to calculate too high for most of my workouts after I got my HRM.

    I generally shoot for just over 3,500 per week. I try to play tennis 4 times a week, so that is 2,600 calories and then I jog twice a week, so that is another 1,000. Then when I factor in walking the dogs or doing anything else (like mowing the lawn), I actually have a shot at 4,000. This is a cool idea. Cheers!
