Ok...so I'm still addicted
And I think it's pretty accurate as stated above by TheCuriosity when counting steps....I fell off the wagon with eating over Thanksgiving so I can't say how accurate the calorie burn is...the week before TG I had logged EVERYTHING that went in my mouth and worked out like 3-4 days that week....my calorie defecit for the week was 6291 according to the site... just 709 cals from losing 2lbs
(3500 cals = 1lb) 2lbs/week has been my goal forever!! Problem here is that I haven't weighed myself since late September
And probably won't untl the new year...So I can't comment on the accuracy of the calorie burn...right now I'm concentrating on getting my eating & WO schedule under control.
One thing I have discovered is that the calorie burn for my workouts (I have the FitBit Ultra with the start/stop button for timing sleep & activity) is always way higher than what the cardio machine says at the gym...and I always assumed that the machines OVERestimated but have posted here and on the fitbit site and people say that their fitbit is right on track with their HRM. sooo, i'm really hoping my metabolism is in check with what the calorie burn says on the fitbit site...come 1/1/2012 I will weigh and track my calorie defecit to see if it's consistent with what I lose
