  The reports on myfitnesspal.com seem incomplete to me. Source: over 1 year ago

• Daily calories intake

  There are plenty of online resources that can assist you. For example, myfitnesspal.com has a guided setup under "goals" that calculates the amount of calories you should consume based on your age, height/weight and level of activity. Source: over 1 year ago

• Need weight help

  It only takes a second to put your piece of chicken on a food scale and write down how much it weighs. Then it only takes a second to goto myfitnesspal.com and log it into your daily food diary. It seems overwhelming having to weigh and pay attention to everything you eat, but its actually really easy and becomes second nature over time. Source: over 1 year ago

• Day 1

  That is, of the 632 calories on Day 2, 16g were from protein, 42g from carbs, and 48g from fat. The myfitnesspal.com website makes it easy to input 'manual' foods from my respective meals, where I put in the calories, grams of fat, carbs and protein, and it calculates out the percentages / calories on a given day's diary.

• Is this a good way to lose weight?

  You can lose weight healthily just by educating yourself a bit. I mention so many times about using myfitnesspal.com but thats because it has a very knowledgable community, easy to use, has a massive database. You can steadily lose weight and still eat! Be sensible about how much weight you want to lose each week. Max 2 pounds/1kg. I lost a lot of weight using the site without starving and am still using it now.... Source: over 1 year ago

• I need help. I can’t stay full or energized.

  If "no idea" in this case means you haven't done those things, start there. Search for a TDEE calculator and Google how to use it to figure out how much of a calorie deficit to eat. Then start tracking your food. myfitnesspal.com is a free site/app where you can do that. Once you're doing that, you can see whether you are getting enough calories, protein, fat, and fiber in your diet. Source: over 1 year ago

• Activity Algorithm Different?

  I like that the watch syncs with myfitnesspal.com and even make efforts to track calories. But if I don't select an activity before starting a workout, will the heartrate and calorie burn still be the same as though I did? Does the software distinguish between "activity" and "non-activity" metrics? Source: over 2 years ago
