I bought a Polar F6.
I bought it for $109 at ****'s Sporting Goods, but then found it at Amazon and Sears for $80. So, I purchased one at Sears too and I'll return the one I bought for $109. :) It's a pretty nifty little gadget though. I'm glad I bought it. I CANT WAIT to use it! Thanks for everyone's input!

I am a student who brings their lunch to school. I'm trying to find some sandwich ideas and other meals I can bring to school without having to heat up. I don't have a cooling lunchbox for my food.

What could this mean?
Since about 3 weeks into my diet, I noticed....and you're all going to think I'm crazy, that I can taste a metallic, coppery taste in my mouth.

Moment of Weakness
Today was a bad calorie day. I gave into my chocolate cravings and ate an Aero bar, and now I physically feel like crap. It really just made me put the junk food cravings into perspective. Sometimes, it's just not worth it.
