Hey! I'm New and Have a Question!

Under "My Account," what does the number in "Burn Meter" mean?

Welcome!

That is the number of calories you are burning just being alive.  Then when you add in an activty the total number goes up.  Just remember it does not go up the entire amount of the activity as it has to adjust for amount of time you are using.  Basically saying you receive your just being alive credit for the minutes you workout.

Good luck and enjoy the site!

Thanks so much! I honestly feel as if I don't even know how to diet. The littlest advice always helps!
