calorie counter on the Apple Watch Is it possible to turn off calorie counting on the Apple Watch? I want to use Apple fitness and apparently need a watch but anyone in the eating disorder community will tell you having calorie counting is a bit of a trigger. It would be great to switch it off. I want to track my strength not an inaccurate measurement of energy burned! Haha.

Thanks. It must be the setting in my watch. Right now all I see are the circles. Thanks.

That is in the iPhone Fitness app.

On the Watch open the Activity app from the App chooser then slide it up
