Is Runtastic off?
So I've been using Endomondo for a long while to track my walks, but I decided to give Runtastic a try.

Anyone have any insight into this?

Eat above BMR?

Question about lifestyle.
So, when I started using MFP I claimed I had a sedentary lifestyle due to the fact that I sit down for school, work, gaming, and did little to no exercise. However, in the last 6 months I have started walking to school and back four days a week, a mile each way, as well as going to the gym, for aerobic and weight lifting,…

When Myfitnesspal asks you for your exercise goals, like how many days and how long, is it only asking about Cardio? I looked in the exercise tab, and its listed only under the Cardio section. Does it incorporate weight training?
