Sure, I can give you all the tools you need for weight loss, but if you're not willing to get off your butt, then you won't get anywhere. You need to find that inner drive to…

Success stories
Since I've had no success (started MFP 4/1) I was hoping to read comments and testimonials from others who have used HRM's and MFP to reach goals. Since buying my HRM 7 days ago, I started eating within a 500 calorie deficit. Prior to my HRM, I was going by MFP, which was much lower than my HRM (like 300 calories lower)…
