    Its a HRM (heart rate monitor). Its a watch. Polar is a brand of HRM (top brand??) The F4 calculates calorie expenditure. Quite cool. Got some more info in this post: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/22168-hrms-and-calorie-count-things
    Ha I paid NZ$200 - not too much but I'm a student and that was the exact amount I had lol. Ohhh well, I'm excited! My mum wasn't too pleased but hey... she hasnt had to try losing weight!

    NZ$200 is US$137.92. Everything is more expensive in New Zealand :grumble:

    Hi Marshall,

    Well done on the weight loss. Great to have a heart rate monitor. I have a F1 i think. Pretty boring one really. How much weight are you trying to lose????
