NOT LOSING ANYMORE
I am extremely discouraged at this point of my weight loss journey. I do not want to DIET!! Never have! And, I have never had to focus on my weight, as is the case right now. I want to be careful not to consume a lot of junk foods. But I do not want to stop eating them all together because that would really not be my…

Fat burning zone and cardio zone
I went to the gym today to test my body fat % and weigh myself. The trainer asked me a few questions about my routine and asked about my target heart rates since he saw I had my HRM on. I told him I normally train at a high HR to burn more calories, but he said that I wasn't working out in the Fat Burning % and therefore…
