Fitbit also calculates the calories your body burns at rest and just existing. Being a lazy ass my body still burns about 2200 calories a day. Does he Apple watch include that? Or just count steps?

My understanding is that the Watch doesn't actually monitor steps, instead it monitors the calories your body burns throughout the day.
