Give it a couple weeks to measure before relying on it. I find about 200-500 a day difference between the two. For me I lose better eating based on BMF meaning FB is too low.

I have both. I like both but think the BMF is more realistic and hated the FB integration with MFP. Will keep both since FB is not broken. In summer will likely put BMF away since the arm band is unsightly

Okay, you have me beat. I am making lasagna tonight though so my pictures will look even better later ;)

12/24 2.96 miles 12/25 1.9 miles 12/26 6.37 miles 12/27 4.29 miles Total so far for December 129 miles even

1,700 - 2,100. Most often @ 1,900. I am 5'2" and 149 looking to lose 20 more. I am losing about 1.5 pounds a month and not starving. Working on sustainable for life.

I have been eating at TDEE for a little over a week and have lost 2-pounds. The same thing happened when I went from 1,500 up to 1,700-1,800 calories per day. My pants are definitely tighter though. Weird stuff

Home, I hate to share the elliptical (have to share it with my husband though and he keeps attaching the arms which I have to detach). It would drive me nuts waiting in line for it at the gym, but then I don't go to the gym ;)

My son just gave me a pair of 12 pound dumbells. I am super stoked about that gift, it is perfect!!!

Something that helps people and is low stress but pays enough. Don't know what that is, but it would be nice. Actually I have my dream job as an appraiser working from home. Sometimes I help people because most of what I do is privately contracted work when people have a need. I love being able to be out and about and use…

oh my, brie, bread, licorice (the black salty stuff), chocolate, sweets of all kinds, potato chips, cookies. Ugh! I still induldge in the licorice though :)

I have had Asics, Saucony, and Brooks. Currently sporting Brooks after a pair of Asics that were causing some foot pain. Your feet change over time. Don't get stuck on the brand as these ones are all good. Go for what truly fits and will hold up with your mileage. Go to a running store for a proper fit and enjoy.

Not a fitness gift, but a gift because I walk a lot and my feet hurt: I-need. A foot massager! Best.gift.ever!

PG Tips for everyday drinking. About to have a mug of sleepy time now. Love jasmine if it is high quality, lapsing sushong in the afternoon, and some spiced teas occasionally but mostly it is just good old PG Tips

Ah! That makes sense. What a boat load of walking. How do your feet handle it? At a certain point my feet just don't feel like they should go any further. I have a treadmill desk and use it 2-4 hours a day, depending on how my feet feel that day.

6/23 6.73 miles 113.48

I will have to try the sunflower and pumpkin seeds too! Love, love, love honey but trying to cut back on my sugars. Great additions folks

Moon racer, do you have a treadmill desk?

12/21 3.39 miles 12/22 2.76 miles I will log today tomorrow as I might still walk more Total so far 106.75 miles

I have the following (all of which I love) -Precor elliptical (they rock) -treadmill (my desk is on top of it - what better way to work?) -Functional trainer (don't use it as well as I should) -10 pound medicine ball -battle ropes I would love to add a set of dumbells from 8 pounds up to 25, maybe higher -Great bench that…

Ooh, I want that! Sans the bike that is

Better than bullion as a base for everything Pat of butter, diced onion and garlic browned then some BTB. Add carrots celery and whatever appeals to you. I like barley and/or lentils. Add s water, simmer and devour. Spices that go well include herbs de Provence, bay leaves, garam masala or oregano. You can add potatoes or…

I can not go in JJs without coming out with unhealthy loot that store is a trap I say

7.81 miles on 12/20 bringing to 100.60 miles month to date. Woot, broke the 100 mile barrier with days to spare.

So I have both the FitBit and the BMF and I've had the BMF for two months now. My most recent 28-day reading has me averaging 2,054 calories per day whereas the first month it was 2,210. Since the first month it was learning my activity levels I am guessing the second month is more accurate at 2,054 calories per day. The…

I am not fond of the taste but like their ingredients. Will have to try banana nut and see if the flavor appeals to me. Right now I am rocking lunabars because they taste so freaking good and contain only the good stuff (sans sufficient protein). Quest bars are good. Just wish I found them delicious like so many of you do

Thanks. Only time I would eat back is if I overdo it ( happens sometimes)

Hi Mandy, I currently weigh 150 and to be a healthy weight for me 130 seems about right (with muscles). I am 5'2" and 51-years old and my start weight was 182 in January. I slowed down a lot in movement of weight since about August losing about 5-6 pounds since then. I am not in a hurry to lose as I am reasonably healthy…

Makes sense spramn. I'll have to look at a running total of 4 weeks worth of data too (or more) to see what it averages out to and base my TDEE break on that, if it is truly a good gauge. I do want to try and be able to eat more so I don't want to underestimate what I need, and end up with some type of vicious cycle where…

BMF is the BodyMedia Fit which is an arm band that is supposed to track how much you actually expend in energy each day. It is based on your weight, age, etc. They say it is 95% accurate but it does appear to measure me higher most of the time. Yesterday I barely moved and it said I expended close to 1,900 calories during…
