  • But fitbit doesnt know what my activity level is. Because I am using fitbit to MEASURE my activity level rather than arbitrarily estimating it, the fitbit adjustment should leave me with the same number of calories in a given day regardless of what I THINK my activity level is.
  • After looking into it more, I am convinced that it is not accurate. I will be given a different goal depending on what activity level I choose. This doesn't make sense, considering I allow my Fitbit to negatively adjust. No matter what I choose, my calories for the day SHOULD be based solely on my fitbit adjustment, not on…
  • @sbarella, I think you nailed it. It appears that the days needs to start with the intended setting already in place.
  • Just realized I posted this in the wrong place. Disregard, I am re-posting.
  • That doesnt work. I just removed all the logs that came in from Map My Ride, and then manually logged the same data. It still shows me as 24,000 steps for the day.
  • I just finished a test. I started my bike ride with a synced Fitbit, and left it in my flatkit that hangs from my seat. It should move less than my body. I was at 520 steps. I got off my bike and synced the Fitbit BEFORE syncing the MapMyRide workout, and I was over 8K. Clearly, it is not the addition of a workout that is…
  • I guess the question is this… If I use one Fitbit, sync, then put on another and sync the second one later on, will all steps from all Fitbits add cumulatively?
  • 1) Would the following "work flow" work? Unit A - Home/ Primary Unit B - B2W Days I would Wear Unit A 24/7 as my device, only taking it off for showers or when I plan to go running (work outs logged manually through MMR). On days that I bike into work. I would take Unit A off, and bike in. At work, I would Sync, and wear…
  • Everything I need at work, I bring the day before. I always try to have a spare set of clothes so that I can decide to bike to work on a whim. There isn't really a place on my body that will not move similarly to my lower back. My helmet probably moves more than my trunk. But that isn't really the question. The question is…
  • I noticed that it counts a lot of my pedal strokes even when in my jersey pocket (on my lower back). I dont carry a bag so there really arent a lot of options in terms of transporting it.
  • I dont want to have to log walking on days that i dont work out. Plus, strength training doesnt allow you to log calories.
  • So I DO eat back my calories. The real reason my calorie goal is stressing me out is that on days that I strength train, or days that I rest, its a low number to hit. I do log my work outs, but I dont log my casual walking, short bikes commutes, etc. I like having an aggressive goal. The problem is that I also like hitting…
