Timex HRM
I just bought a HRM and love it. One question though...instructions say to wet it before use. Why is it like that? I forgot to do it this morning and it said i burned 757 calories in 52 minutes. That 52 minutes consisted of running two laps around the park and walked one lap around the park. I am 5'2' and weigh 163 lbs. Do…

SBF2 Reboot Boogaloo! Nov 30
Good morning! I'm trying to get back on track this morning. I've logged all my food for the day. Still a little higher on carbs than I want but it's better. Just because I want to have a corn muffin later with dinner. :huh: Other wise I think it looks pretty good. I need to get back to have a fruit and veggie at each meal.…

I have no energy!
What am I doing wrong? I have been so tired the last week or so, and don't know what's going on. I eat right, I exercise, I get usually 8 hours of sleep a night, if not more. I'm not feeling stressed. I enjoy working out, 99% of the time. But the last few days, I have to force myself to workout. In the middle of working…

Found a 5k group!
Hey all, I am excited. I love to run... but get bored doing it alone. I moved about a year ago so I am making new friends.

(a little cold in these winter months).…

Staircase - OW!
I am living in the dorms at college and it's about a quarter-mile walk to the gym on campus, which is a great warmup most days but today was yucky rain-sleety and I didn't feel like it, so I had the great idea to use the stairs in my building, which has 13 stories. Great idea, right? OH. MY. GOODNESS. I live on the 11th…

Nervous about going to the gym
I am on this site because I need to lose weight. I can (usually) do pretty good about eating healthier, but I struggle to exercise. I am nervous to go to a gym because I'm afraid people will wonder "why is the fat girl at the gym?" I am a college student, and I walked into the gym on campus and everyone seemed to be a size…

working out in the am before breakfast
I have heard a few people say that if you work out in the morning before breakfast, you are burning more stored fat, because you're not burning the calories you just ate if you ate breakfast. When I say work out, I mostly mean cardio, and not too high of intensity, for example, and elliptical machine. Any one know for sure?

What do you know about miniscus tears?
I have had a fall 2 weeks ago, feel really dumb! I'm pretty sure I sprained my knee as that seems to be getting better finally. I went to the DR and he's concerned I may have torn the miniscus.
