If you remember a weeks ago, i asked for suggestions on the fitness tracker. I ended up getting Fitbit Alta yesterday and so far i like it. Although it the calories burnt are a bit exaggerated. For anyone who has the technology know how do i reset the calories burnt because after just walking less than a mile, i had already burnt 1800 cals, lol. I know I'm not that effective. Or do i just ignore them. Thanks in advance.

Oh and today is my Birthday

Happy Birthday!! We are almost birthday buddies- mine is Sept 18.  :)

It includes all calories including what you burn by just being alive. I don't really pay attention to it to be honest.  I have the Fitbit Flex, but I really want to get an Alta.

Thank you daizymom. Actually you're almost twins with my sister and niece's whose b'day is on the 19th. 

I figured that after i posted and i wasn't going to probably pay attention to them all that much. The steps and all the other things is what i'm more interested about.

My doctor said the calorie burn would be about 10% off with that. But I mostly just worry about the step count. Love my ALTA and the fact I can switch bands...
