Fitbit users...general question
How much to do you trust your fitbit adjustments? I wear mine daily to track activity and sleep (today makes like day 3 of wearing it), but it's adding A LOT of exercise cals. It added 859 for today. What?! For instance, today I ate 1689 cals (or something around there) I worked out. Nothing to major. I completed day 10 of…

I need advice (:
My goal is to get stronger. So far my main source of exercise has been cardio. Cardio gets boring. Not that you don't need it, but I'm looking to add more body weight exercises and then move into weights. Like I said, I want to get stronger. Anyway, when it comes to anything other than cardio I'm sort of lost. I've been…

fitbit question.
I got a fitbit today and it's adding calories from exercise. Now, It's only recording my normal daily activity (today is my rest day) . I have my MFP account set to Lightly Active. I'm a stay at home mom so I figured that would be pretty correct. Do I need to change my activity status if this trend continues? Should I…
