so my sister is willing to sell me her polar HRM with chest strap for $20 its in great shape, the only problem is, it doesnt have how many calories you burned

but couldn't i convert it online somewhere? i just need some opinions on what to do!!

what does it show if not calories burned? can you set it to your specificiations? (Height, weight, etc.)

I like to use this site to calculate calories burned based on average workout HR: http://www.triathlontrainingblog.com/calculators/calories-burned-calculator-based-on-average-heart-rate/

Make sure you enter "35" in the VO2Max field if you don't know your VO2Max...otherwise you will get a really high amount of calories burned and that isn't helpful when you're trying to lose weight!
