I've made a ton of progress and need the extra support to lose that last ten pounds or so! I workout so I can eat! Add me

Just started using the UP3 after my UP 24 died. I've noticed my steps are WAYY lower... I don't know it's because it's more accurate or missing lots of my steps. I guess with weight loss goals, it's better to underestimate activity that overestimate it --- but I still wish my steps were more precise.

I have a desk job. I gained a ton of weight my first few weeks working here because all I did was sit on my butt AND go out to lunch every day with my co-workers. Yuck! Now I work out as much as I can before work. Can't do the lunch time break thing because I want to shower. Also, my rule for myself is that I eat super…

Thanks so much for all the help!! My calorie adjustment finally did pop up last night. Glad I got the Jawbone so I can get a true measurement on my activity level. Thanks again.

Thanks. That makes more sense. How do I know what my "deficit" is? I did set MFP to 1lb/week so that may be the difference. So if my MFP activity level is at 1,920 and UP predicts 1,960... Then I would just get a tiny adjustment of 40, right? What's kind of bumming me out is that I did a little workout today to burn 200…

Thanks!! I friended you earlier because I saw how helpful your posts were! I'm not sure why I'm not seeing an adjustment in my diary for my UP. Here's my stats at the moment: Per UP: 1,642 actual burned calories so far 1,961 estimated total calorie burn for the day 1,262 calories consumed (info from MFP) Per MFP: 1,420 set…
