Awesome, thank you. That’s clever.

Hi @sijomial Thanks for that. So every week I try and do an easy-ish half-marathon. I adjust my pace to ensure it hits around 1500 calories. Can you please give an example of your converting goals by grams to percentages - it sounds good.

Hi @kshama2001 Many thanks. My exercise that consumed 1500 calories was a half-marathon. I thought that if I consumed 1500 calories, it means that my deficit might be a bit high. Is this not accurate thinking? Thanks Max

Thank you both very much. Great minds eh - I took my watch off when sitting around not doing much this morning and for today's meeting. So today's schedule (I've marked where I took the Charge HR on/off my wrist i.e. when I wasn't wearing it): 0. 6h00 - 9h00 (FB OFF as sitting around house not moving much 1. 9h30 - 10h15…

Thanks Nancy. I was sitting the whole meeting but get pretty animated at the best of times :) Perhaps I should remove my fitbit during meetings...?

Thanks - this is all new to me appreciate your sharing and teaching. So the early morning 6.30 was a spinning class. From 11am - 3pm I got on a train, walked a 1/2 mile from the station to the office, attended a meeting (must have been more animated than I thought maybe?) and then walked 1/2 a mile back to the train…

And for the record, here's Monday where it took away calories (unlike Tuesday where it seemed to give me far too many)

Thanks Nancy. So here are the graphs for Tuesday where it gave me all the extra calories as described above. Do they seem right to you?

Thanks so much Nancy. I do have it set to sedentary. Did you take those graphs from PC? I can't find them on the iPhone.

Thanks - it is amazing how it knows exactly which calories came from the spinning and which calories were walking to the spinning class!

Thanks. Yes, I tool your advice and logged my spinning in Fitbit and not on MFP. But depending which spinning option I choose in Fitbit, it offers different calorie counts. If I log in Fitbit as I did, will it automatically assign the calories used to the spinning activity that I logged? Otherwise does it not risk…

Oh sorry, and one more question: fitbit has two ways of manually entering spinning: one based on start time and duration, and another option to simply enter duration. However, when entering the same duration, the one using the start time and duration of 40m gives me 300 calories whereas the other for the same duration…

Hi there Thanks so much for this incredibly helpful advice. I have another question: Although I wore my FitBit Charge HR during spinning, I manually entered the class into the fitbit app and it gave me 300 calories. However, myfitnesspal tells me I've earned 506 calories. I wonder whether there is some double-counting…
