Hey there! I have been doing this for two weeks now and I am just now introducing myself. I decided to join this program to get rid of the weight I gained during my pregnancy. My daughter is now 2 and I realized that exercise is not enough. I really need to monitor my meals to loose these last 10 pounds. So here I am. 2 weeks into it and 2 pounds lighter. So far its going ok. I find myself guessing at how many calories I am burning when I exercise. I ordered a HRM to fix that problem though. Hopefully I will be more accurate with my exercise calories. Anyway, hope to hear from you sometime. Good luck with your goals!

  • The exercise counter on this site is actually pretty good in terms of estimating calrie burn. Probably not as good as a HRM, but not too bad. Good luck on those last 10 lbs. I am still trying to lose my last 10 (and my son is 13 !)
