I want to buy a watch to count my steps I take and calories I burn. I am new to them, can you guys suggest a few that are worth the money? Thanks.... :)

    Most HRM's don't count steps unless they have GPS built in.. and Pedometers that don't use heart rate won't be accurate in counting calories. Also in order to have an accurate calorie count, you are going to need a chest strap..not just a watch.

    There are quite a few Garmins that do calories and distance with GPS, and the Polar FT60/80 has the GPS option for calories/distance.
