So I started wearing the MyTrak yesterday. I've heard the first week is quite easy to 'go for green'. This morning I had the ring of green before lunchtime which I thought was odd. I'm still wearing my my Omron pedometer to compare the two.
I don't really enjoy having to plug in the MyTrak to the computer to upload the data, but so be it. What I found interesting was when I logged in online and looked at my profile,
Okay- that information I can live with, but it was this next bit that really got me peeved:
Your maximum recommended daily caloric intake should be: 905 Calories per day
Um- Excuse me?
No one, who is actively seeking to lose weight (and keep it off) can do so on 905 calories a day. Now granted I put in that I wanted to lose 20 pounds between now and Aug. 31st which is a huge stretch for me (I didn't even lose 20 pounds last YEAR) But who are they kidding? I plan on writing to Mytrak and complain, because that is not healthy.
Do you have to eat extra shakes the more you weigh?

I'm curious if you have gone back to see if that number changed. After I read this I went to mine and the number seems to be much higher now because I remember at first being shocked like you. Now mine must be based on my exercise and is quite reasonable. I am having fun with the gadget but find the stuff online hard to figure out.
ReplyDeleteI was the same, that first week the numbers are all "learning" and mine made a lot more sense once that initial period was over too.
