What a great NSV! Awesome burn this week!0 -
Finally got myself a decent HRM tonight! Can't wait to try it out in the morning and see if what MFP calculates is anywhere close to the HRM reading. As of tonight I only need 658 more exercise calories! Woohoo!0

Not too shabby. I wish I had the cash to buy a heart monitor--the running on MFP is never quite right for my pace and doesn't take into account that half my run is uphill the whole way.
I will start with you all on Monday, but for my half week, I think I was on target!
Lost 2 lbs! (but to be fair my TOM ended, which always brings me down. I don't expect that kind of loss every week.)
Good work to everyone! Let's keep going!!0 -
