Hello everyone =) I just started this today and am hoping for it to be a great support source to help me as I am working on this lifestyle change. Trying to understand the activities and how it calculates calories burned by what I enter...don't know the configurations just yet. I walk a mile (plus) a day on my lunch break at work...just in walking around the building..takes me approx 24 mins to make it a mile...just dont understand the rest of what it shows there on the entry..seems like a lot of calories burned however..LOL ! thats a bonus...if I'm entering thing correctly....
Anyways..I'm looking forward to meeting folks and good luck to each and every one of you out there on your individual journeys and goals..!!
I am new too, it is nice to meet a fellow beginner!
I think if you specify your walking pace on there, it should make it pretty accurate in the way of calories burned because it takes your weight into account. I just work out at home, I have 2 one year old girls that like to laugh at me the whole time.
