Traffic lights :) I log all my walks on runkeeper and that logs each mile along the time taken - My mile times vary between 10-15 mins / mile so that's 6mph (for 10 min mile) and 4 mph (for 15 min mile) - so smarty I am walking at the stated pace

How about 10 miles at 4-6 mph + 13 miles at 3 mph. extreme enough for 2000 cals??

Fitbit logs 5 miles verified by GPS into work. 5 mile "walk" takes me 90 mins. So 13 miles in 8 hrs is a walk in the park (excuse the pun)

Fitbit is saying I should eat 4000+ cals / day too. and the way runkeeper works with fitbit is if you log an activity with runkeeper, fitbit ignores the steps from the sensor during that time (in the case of cycling there is lots of effort but little logged steps) So fitbit and runkeeper ARE NOT DOUBLE LOGGING STEPS

Thanks for the information. As I said earlier going to do the 2850 (for 5 days) and 600 (for 2 days) and see if my weight starts to move in the right direction. Might switch to only 1 x 600 cal day if my weight starts to go below my target.

I'm stuck at the 145-150 pounds level. I want to be at 22 BMI and therefore need to get down to 140 pounds.

as I said before I walk 5 miles to and from work (10 miles so far) then I walk around at work most of the time for 8 hours. My walking pace is between 4 and 6 MPH (verified by GPS) SO approx 13 miles/day walking around at work + 10 miles walking to/from work IS A LOT OF ACTIVITY

I think I'm going to try and stick to my 2589 & 600 calories (I'm trying the 5:2 Diet) next week and see if my weight stabilizes. At the moment I'm stuck on 145-150 lbs.

It's not double counting. If I don't log my walk to work on Runkeeper then Fitbit sends the steps to fitbit and I still get 1500-2000 exercise calories in MFP. I'll double check that by not logging my walks next week and see what it says.

I can't stop counting my walking steps. I use a fitbit and that counts ALL my steps, Walking or Running. I have set my activity to Active in MFP.

@AnotherXFitGu I WALK at 4-6 miles / hour and runkeeper counts it as Jogging, Fitbit counts it as "Very Active" activity. Look at my fitbit profile if you want. --- http://www.fitbit.com/user/22D3X2 http://www.myfitnesspal.com/bluetalonuk

@mdf247 I'm a Postman (Processing). I'm on my feet all of the 8 hour shift. My job involves a lot of walking, and that combined with the 10 miles walking to/from work (I don't drive so I walk to the the train station and then from the station to the plant). I have my target on Fitbit set to 25000 steps and the Fitbit…
