Mio Link vs. Polar FT4 with chest strap
Does anyone have a review of either of these hrms? I like the idea of the Mio Link not having a chest strap, but the reviews online are mixed. I know a lot of people like using the Polar FT4. I exercise by walking while pushing my kids in a double stroller and doing work out dvds at home. I have a New Balance hrm right now…

Accurate TDEE/RMR estimation?

However, say I am sedentary for most of the day but then work out intensely daily for an hour? What activity level is that? How does one distinguish between someone who moves around…

Staged goals or one to rule them all...
When I started MFP I set my goal weight to the lowest I've ever achieved prior to MFP. Long story, but I had put on a bit of weight since then over the last year. So my initial goal is to hit 190. Once I do, I plan to set a new goal for something reasonable that will help improve my running further. Perhaps in the 160s.…

New to cycling
Hi all, I've recently taken up cycling after not going on a bike for 20 years and am really enjoying it. My partner is a serious cyclist so it's nice to be able to join in, even if our rides together are more of a snail's pace than he is used to! I have ME and Fibromyalgia so am taking my time building up my rides without…

So, I had a rough start when I logged in a couple of weeks ago for the first time in over a year.

Today, I started logging all my food…

Weighing and measuring
Its time for me to start taking my weight loss and exercise more serious. Im curious as when its best to weigh and measure. What do you all recommend? I can't cope with weekly weigh ins as I get obsessed with the scale, yet I don't want to leave it too long to measure how Im doing.

New to MFP and using a FitBit Flex
I need someone to tell me I understand this all correctly or if I need to do something differently. 1. I have linked my two apps together. 2. I should log food only into MFP and not at all in fitbit (can I log water intake in fitbit as I find that interface easier?) 3. My daily walks should NOT get manually added into MFP…
