question for everybody: how do you know how much cals do you burn. Do you have HRM, or do you go by cals on the exercise equipment? A long time ago I read in some ftnes magazine that exercise eq. is not accurate and you havve to burn extra 20 cals to burn actually 100 so 100=120 cals.0

Shawna - thx for the encouragement. will try my best!!
Silverlil - yes I use a HRM. I never go by the machines b/c they are not accurate.0 -

I use an HRM watch and it actually tells me I burn more than the machine does. My watch is also close to MFP and Livestrong website. The elliptical is way off.0 -
''Hi guys! I signed up for this challenge last week and forgot to check in on Sunday.
CW: 129
GW: 120 (for this challenge)
I really hope this thread sticks and we all see this challenge thru. Good luck to everyone!
I hope everyone stays with this! I know most challenges die down after a few weeks. If we all stick to it, check in, encourage each other and just stay focused then we can keep this going.
Think BIKINIS :happy:0 -
Burned 810 today at the gym!
And I use a HRM as well (Polar FT7) It's awesome!! 0 -
Is it too late to join? well, starting weight is 144, goal weight is 125-130. So I guess, 1 pound a week would get me there! which, actually, doesn't seem too bad, but i m going to shoot for sooner! lol0

I managed to burn 555 cals in 75 minutes last night. The night before I burned 569 in 65 minutes...not sure why it was so much harder last night! Of course, I am going by the machine's numbers. I plan to get a HRM soon but regardless of the numbers, I'm burning more than in the past with this challenge for sure!0
