Just requested to follow you.

This happens to me and I am on here trying to find out why. One idea that seems plausible is that MFP subtracts the calories you would burn had you been stationary/sedentary for the duration of the workout.

I have this too. I have a chest strap with the app. Beat syncs with Flow which then syncs with MFP. I guess it would make sense that the count in MFP is lower as it subtracts the calories you'd have burnt had you been stationary. Would just like this confirmed for tracking purposes.

It is not impossible but it is tough. The mfp calculator is a good indicator of how much you COULD lose but as with anything it's an estimate. A lb a week is a good target but if you have one off week it could set you off your goal. No harm giving it a go.

I Bought myself a heart rate monitor. It's brilliant. I recommend Polar. Set it up, wear it during your workout with the chest strap and it works out the calories for you.

I'm 5'7 and at first I want to aim for 160 and see how that looks on me. If it's still "too big" then I will aim for 150. Will just go gradually from there and see what looks best. Will also depend on how much muscle I build as I lose weight.
