I bought one at Wal-Mart for 27.00. It said I burned one cal a min. Regardless if I was running, walking, weight lifting or sitting in a chair. Also said I was burning one cal a min when I didn't even have it on. Took it back. Don't go too cheap :o)

Hi Chef I have found that it is very hard for me to get to my calorie count (1979) without totally messing up my macros because of the ingredients added to food.

I had 52.5 to lose when I started and have lost 12. Will be glad to make this journey with you if you'd like to add me too :o)

When you've been eating low calorie for a while then raise you're calories it's not unusual to even gain a little until metabolism adjusts. Then you should start dropping again. I just went through the same thing.

I had a massive heart attack in 2004 at age of 46. Killed most of the front left side of my heart.

Here's a link to Zumba in a Chair. It's on utube but there are several of this style there. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eUmRwRyWD8&feature=related

I'm also interested in this answer. I also have diabetes and a bad heart. Am home alone most days and found an old Sweating to the Oldies tape that I exercise to (sometimes holding a chair) Looking for something different to change up.

When I send a request it always brings me back to the blank page but it sends the request.

I don't have an answer for you, but today I decided to try eating mine back too. We'll see what happens.
