Is your Fitbit lying to you?? How Accurate are Wearable Calorie Trackers?

Is your Fitbit lying to you?? How Accurate are Wearable Calorie Trackers?

The Fitbit and its many competitors have become super popular in recent years, and for good reason. They are a really cool way to tangibly track your progress and activity, but are they as reliable as they seem?

    Love this content! As an avid Fitbit wearer and follower of its output myself you’ve reminded me to keep that data in context – not as gospel!!

    But how accurate is the sleep tracking??? That’s almost the only part I look at, besides step counting.

    Thanks for the video. I am so disappointed with my first smart watch fitbit health based. It’s just crazy to me that they are so wildly inaccurate. Take yesterday no real steps just grocery shopping 6700 steps for the day and leg day workout showing 480 calories. My watch shows 4500 calories burned. That’s just insane I’m only eating 2500 calories I’d be dead eventually if I kept burning 4500 while eating 2500. It’s like it’s adding my BMR on top of my daily activity.
