walking
I wore my pedometer today while I out and I walked around for 75mins. I went to an online calorie estimator and put it down as walking leisurely less than 2mph, I entered my weight and then it told 496 calories. I don't think that is accurate. Does anyone know of a site or something where I can enter how many steps I took…

Dolmio pasta sauce
I'm trying this for the first time and it has nutritional info on the jar. I was wondering if the calories listed on there are just for the sauce on it's own or if it's for the whole meal once it's made as per directions on the jar.

Did I work it out right ?
My BMR is 1858 "TDEE = BMR x Activity " Sedentary (little or no exercise) = 1.2 x BMR = 2229 " To lose weight - Daily Calorie Intake = TDEE - (20% of your TDEE) " TDEE = 2229 - 445 = 1784 So I should be eating 1784 calories a day ?

View ingredients ?
Is there a way to view the ingredients, when you are tracking food and you select something you have the option to view nutritional info but it only tells you the calories etc For example I found home made gravy so I viewed nutritional info but it doesn't tell me whats in the gravy or how it was made.

Been tracking my exercise wrong
I just realised that the treadmill is in km per hour but MFP is in mph. So when I log my walking say if I do 5.5km per hour on the treadmill and I log it on here I'm really logging 5.5mph which = 8.8kph No wonder MFP was saying so many more calories, I thought MFP was very generous but now I know I was just logging wrong…

Does your weight affect weight loss?
When I am on the treadmill it asks me to input my weight for accurate calories lost. So does your size affect how many calories you burn? If 2 people done the exact same exercise for the exact same amount of time who would lose more calories, someone who is 100kg or someone who is 60kg ? Should I input my weight and record…
