I just walked/jogged 4 miles in 46 minutes. I use Calorie King to track my calories and exercise and it says that I burned 467 calories, but when I used the Activity calculator here, it says I burned about 700 calories... my pedometer says I burned 565 calories. I weigh 257 pounds. This is a huge difference, so can anyone help me figure out which one is correct? :nono:

Eat based on the assumption you burnt the lower number, and if that turns out to be a mistake and you end up losing more weight that will be a bonus.
