Does this watch have a calorie counter function?

The watch will tell you how many calories you burned..as far as how much you EAT (take in) ..NO. I give this watch a B , it's good to keep your heart rate on check and tells you how long you've been working out and how many calories burned. So, YES it will tell you how many calories burned...you just got to read the manual as it can be confusing ..and make sure you wet the band ..hope that answers your question.

Yes, it does. I do not know why some others here responded that it does not, I have tested this and it tracks automatically even if you turn the watch on and off.

No, it does not track steps or miles, just heart rate. But it keeps track of your calories burned, hours spent in activity and how long you are in your target heart rate zone.

The watch features a week-long bar graph that shows daily information (steps, calories, distance, sleep) but ONLY in graph form. I haven't found a way to see the numbers for those days (ie number of calories burned).

Hi, I have this watch to a client for a gift. He said it works great but takes some time to understand all the inner workings. Not sure of your calorie question but I do know he loves the watch.

Short answer: yes. It tracks your daily miles and there is an option to start tracking a "workout". It works like a stopwatch. You have to go through some menu functions to get to it but it doesn't take very long. You press the lower right button and the timer goes off. As you work out, you can check your HR, see how many calories you have currently lost, and the distance in miles and steps. You can even pause it for those bathroom breaks or extended water breaks and then press the lower right button to restart the workout. It won't save it so if you have another work out it will over ride it. It's quick and easy without complications of setting anything other than pressing a button to start tracking. I love this watch. Unfortunately, one downfall I started to notice was the clasp that kept the darn thing on your wrist became distrustful. First couple months were without issue and then I noticed after daily wear and removal, the clasp would easily unclasp and my watch would fly across the room or drop to the floor. Some causes were during aggressive movement as in a weight lifting workout or a run, but even during non aggressive movement (walking, dishes, picking things up) it would come off. So, with that said, I lost my favorite watch two weeks ago :-( be weary but don't lit hinder you. I would maybe buy another band and switch it every so often. I hope this helps some how...

Yes, there is a calculator feature. It also has a stopwatch and a calendar. All in the Tools section

I have the female version (gray with pink stripe) forerunner 110 and it DOES track calories! It displays once you've completed your run and saved it. Calories will appear underneath your time when you view your runs under the "History" option.

For each run, it does calculate calories burned. But you cannot keep a running count of the calories.

I think the calorie count is way off. I used it a couple of times in kick boxing cardio class, which is really intense cardio, and it would only show that I burned like 350 calories. I'm sure its much more than that. If counting calories is what you really want I would get the strape that goes around your body instead of the watch. Its supposed to be much more accurate. Hope this helps!

It does count calories burned. It also is a workout/run timer, counts steps taken and seems to be fairly accurate so long as you set it up correctly.

This watch doesn't count calories. It tells you the calories you've burned according to the steps you've taken in a given time. Say you walked/ran for 30 minutes and that was roughly 3000 steps (I am guessing here) it would say you've burned 200 calories (again a guess in the number) hope this helps

yes it does. display shows steps, remaining steps to goal, distance, calories, time, and date.

Yes. You must have the exercise timer going, take your pulse it will show you what your heart rate is and how many calories burned. Can do it as many times as you like as long as exercise timer is going. Great watch for price paid. I

Yes, it tells the amount of calories burned. It tracks steps, distance, calories burned, and fat burned.

In my understanding the watch is sensing my hand moving and assuming that i am walking if my hand has a wavy or rhythmic motion. So I'd think it will sense your lifting weights also as walking. Also hence the calories credited will not be corrected. ButI think their customer support can answer this best.

not that I ever noticed but the dial does indicate the numerical setting - the display MIGHT show increase of calories burned as resistance is increased but darned if I know for sure. I just so far, have just increased the speed a bit but @ 75 years old just keeping a bit of conditioning. [trip when I walk - stroke]
