Does anyone know of a website that can give you an estimate of calories burned during moderate exercise like fast-paced walking?

    Thats a good question....I wander that myself. I really feel like my weight loss is so slow, but I am only fast pace walking and doing sit ups along with my weight watchers. Granted I did not weigh myself yesterday, but last night I did my 30 minutes with walking up the side of my street and running on the way back down. Long story short I lost 1.5 pounds as of this morning. Dont know if thats why but for like 3-4 days my weight did not budge!!!

    Under the excercise tab - you should be able to find several walking rates.

    CaloriesPerHour.com is also a good site.

    FYI, yes you can find these things out here, or another website. But because of the nature of how the body burns calories, these will be rough estimates. To really know, you should get a heartrate monitor.

    Polar makes a great line of them. Anywhere from $50 to $150 and they are really worth the money IMHO.
