...my new HRM told me I burned more calories doing spin than the spin bike thingey!!!!!! Yayyyyyy!!!!

Got a polar FT4, love it already. I was soooo excited using it last night for the 1st time. Had the chest strap a tad too tight doing my warm-up in the gym beforehand so I loosened it before spin started.

So in total I burned 615 calories, gotta love thos extra numbers!!!!!!!!!! LOVE putting them into my exercise log too.

Was in a fowler of a mood last night and this morning for several reasons but I weighed myself when I get up this morning, refused to look down til the # came up (kinda like doing a pregnancy test, forgetting about it and going back seeing the extra line, same feeling!) and I was down 2 lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm liking today better than yesterday, put it that way!

    Good for you! I love my FT4 as well. Each workout I cannot wait to look at the calories burned at the end. I always wait until I am in front of the computer ready to log before I look. I always get super excited when the same workout has a higher calorie burn than the one before! I got really into this while doing Insanity as I had each workout seperate on my exercise diary and would be so happy when I burned more than the last timeI did that one! Glad Im not the only one! LOL! Congrats on the weight loss, always makes for a great day ahead, starting your day on a great note!
