So I got a fitbit based on a recommendation from a very athletic friend because I started trying to lose weight. I used to be a heavy drinker and weighed just under 300 pounds and ate like shit. I've gotten down to around 250 after quitting drinking and changing eating habits. I started doing landscaping for work and didn't think just a step counter would track my calories correctly.
So this fitbit will have me in "zone minutes" or fatburn heart rate for 1-2 hours a day while I'm working and I usually end up around 25k steps and it and the myfitnesspal app are telling me I need to eat like 5000 calories a day and I'd still be in deficit which seems absurd and frankly impossible/expensive. My job is very physical and I workout before work and granted I'm pretty much always hungry now lol but 5000 seems overboard. Could it be inaccurate? If it is accurate I'm worried that if I'm missing the recommended by like 1-2000 calories that'd be really unhealthy too.
