If I understand correctly you are asking about something you have made at home, saved it as a recipe in MFP and just logged 1 serving instead of every individual ingredient as usual?

First, congratulations for losing pounds and inches! Especially if for years the scale didn't bulge and now finally you have found your recipe for success :smile: Can I ask what have you been doing in the gym that was so punishing and exhausting and ineffective at the same time?

I agree with others here, but would also add that besides training frequency, training intensity plays a role as well. So if your lifting consists of light dumbbell or machine workouts you might need to workout more often.

I finally…

Hi heybales and thank you for answering! I played a bit with my new watch and discovered more things in the app and I think I'm figuring it out. The activity calories don't seem very off, I think. I went for a first few walks with the GPS on, to help establish stride length. Otherwise, most of my activities are indoors…

Hi all, not sure if this is the right place to post, but I am also quite confused with how MFP/GC interact to give a calorie estimate. I have recently migrated from Fitbit Flex2, which is such a simple device, yet was very good in tracking all sorts of activities. I wasn't taking Fitbit total daily burn estimates as…
