  • I have the Garmin vivofit and I like it. It does link to MFP. The Garmin gives more exercise calories than MFP but I usually go with it since I wear the HRM band. With that said I still leave 200-300 calories everyday to adjust for any calorie adjustments. I don't believe anything is perfect in science . It is all relative.
  • Thanks TeaBea you are right. Sometimes it just gets so overwhelming. Most of the time I go by the way my clothes feel and I did LOSE weight so that is a good thing.
  • Clearly I am doing something wrong. I feel like I counted every morsel of food and exercised everyday and I lost 1/2 lb. A little disappointed. But I will not give up, will try eating more of my exercise calories this week and see if that is the problem.
  • can't spell sync. LOL
  • Thanks everyone. IT sounds like I may not be eating enough. I sink my vivofit w/heart rate monitor to mfp to get my exercise calories. Sometimes my vivofit website and my mfp website do read different numbers. Think I will try to eat a few more calorie but it sure seems like a lot of food.
  • I just got the vivofit a month ago and I like it a lot. Haven't figured out all the community stuff yet . Getting ready to get my husband one.
