    I am really not sure what days I should be posting a question? Anyway, I have one :embarassed:

    I started using an HRM today; it registered a total of 1 hour 6 minutes and a calorie burn of 432. This is how I logged it for today:

    treadmill: 41 mins 323 calories (reading from treadmill) then put the remaining under 10 minutes of circuit training to log the remaining 109 calories so my total would be right .... WWYD?

    For those who sometimes have a craving for salty/sweet ... (I love this)

    Fresh green beans
    wash and trim ends, blanche for 3 minutes, put in ice water to cool.
    Pat dry with paper towel and sprinkle with sugar (I use Truvia) and salt to liking!

    Simple, healthy and YUMMY!!

    Hey I just thought I'd take a moment and share a website with everyone just in case someone doesn't know about it. It's called hungry-girl.com . It's the most awesome site because you can find tons of recipes that have been worked with and worked into low-calorie dishes!!! Yum!!! With the holidays right around the corner I thought this was a great thing to share!!
