    Fuel Band

    Might be a dumb question to some of you's but whatever.

    I recently purchased a nike fuel band primarily for the calorie counter. It says I burned 1700 calories today and my bmr with no exercise is 2200 and I figure + 500 calories to gain a lb a week = 4450 calories. That seems way too much but also, I work construction and box in addition to the lifting.

    Does anyone have a Fuel band? If so, how reliable I'd the calorie counter? Thanks.

    Mine's been fairly accurate, but how many fuel points are you earning to get 1700 cals?

    how would a stupid wireless motion detection device tell you how much calories you've burnt? common sense.
    these bands are mostly for obese people so they can feel good after a slow walk burning almost 2000 cals.
