Need advice on a quality HRM/Calorie Counter

Does anyone have recommendations for a quality/accurate heart rate monitor, pedometer and calorie counter? I have lost almost 50 pounds through diet and exercise, but now that I am lighter, fitter and can handle more intense exercise, I'd like to be able to really keep track. I'd like for it to be reliable and not too cumbersome to wear.

Thanks!

    I've had good luck with Polar products. They've gone up in price and got a lot fancier than when I bought mine a million years ago. The FT4 model does everything you want, you do have to wear a chest strap though and I don't not if that's a deal breaker. I've found the chest straps to be pretty comfortable for what it's worth.

    I also have a fancier Garmin Forerunner 305--it is bulky! But, it also all of the things you want, plus it has a GPS and shows pace/speed for walking and running. I'm a gadget geek :D

    Hope that helped a little!
