    My HR is usually between 45-50 when sitting or resting. I am 69 and walk about 12-15 miles a day for exercise.

    When I was in super-training mode for my triathlon + rowing it was around 37, but has since crept up to around 45.

    Best resting heart rate I ever saw was 88. Usually hovers around 93-102

    I'm 34 and my resting hr is now in the 70's. Prior to exercise and weight loss it was in the 90's with medication specifically for that reason. Now I'm off the medication and feel much better. Hoping to get it lower as I increase my activity.

    Depends on my stress levels. Last month is a good example, where I started working on a tough project with long work hours. In normal circumstances it's in the high 50s to low 60s. The toughest parts of the project are done so my stress levels are slowly going down. I will hopefully be done in a few days and things will go back to normal. Funny how there was an initial blip of relief right before starting the project (shows in the graph) when the client approached me with it. The thought of extra income lowered my stress levels for a day or two. Resting heart rate is so interesting to watch for so many reasons.

    When I wake up, it's high 50s (57-59) and I'm far from healthy and/or athletic.

    Being healthy does not only means having a certain weight or able to lift certain amount of weight or whatever. Being healthy means making healthy choices. Being healthy means eating a lot better nutritionally than whatever you were eating previously.. being healthy means incorporating a little workout in your routine.. being healthy means getting your heart rate a little up during the workout.. so are you like cent percent sure you are absolutely far away from healthy????
    Edit: just saw you have lost 172lbs..and OMG OMG OMG if that is true then you must be greatly underestimating yourself!
