I have the polar 4 heart rate monitor and love it, it is accurate on calories burned and also heart rate

Hi I am 55 and found the 1st 10 pounds came off fast and then the next 8 was a lot harder. I reached a point when everyone was saying not to lose anymore. I went on vacation so to say for a month and gained 3 pounds back and now that vacation is over I am back. I also check the scales too often, but only check in once a…

I myself have asked this question, I personnally don't worry to much on the sugar as long as it is coming from natural foods like fruit. It hasn't seemed to hinded my weigh loss.

Be patient!!!! It will come off with the right diet and exercise...I did find the exercise( cardio) to help me the very most and it dropped off.

I agree 1st thing in the morning and on the same day each week..My weigh is different everyday so I chose the same day each week.

One thing it does is flush your system, another is make you feel fuller, so you are less hungry..

I so agree, you sometimes have to trick your body, it gets used to the same routine..Don't get discouraged, keep up the good work.

Ya I usually shoot for 5 days at 60 min, but don't beat myself up if I miss one...Your body will tell you if you have too much.

LOL good answer!!! It made my day!!!

I know I got alittle burnt out, wasn't losing as fast as at first...I took a week off from the exercise, I still ate pretty good, some treats, but weighed myself everyday to monitor myself..I found that I didn't feel as good, din't have the energy that I did when I got up everyday and exercised, so I got back into my…

Yes I think we all feel that way.. But you can have a free day once in a while, I find even on the free days I watch what I eat, but I let myself have a little treat..I take a rest day from exercise once a week also. Keep up the good work..

This is a great site!! Welcome and good luck

I usually have a banana or oatmeal after my morning workout. I also am sooo hungry after..

I tried a cheap one from Walmart 1st and it did the same thing, one day 700 calories and the next 100. I chose to get a polar with a chest strap for more accuratcy and love it.. Well worth the money to keep track of calories and HR.

I think for 2 hours of workout it sounds right.. I burn 350-400 in a hour of running and I am 113 and 5'2"..

I am sure everyone is different but I have lost 15 lbs and 16 inches..(bust, waist,hips, thighs, legs)

thanks for the info

I just bought my 2nd pair and I love them.. I felt the same way about new balance until I bought my 1st pair.

Thanks everyone this also helped me!

thanks everyone

Way to go!!! A 5K is my goal in the future also!!

thanks so much I will quit fretting over it

That is a good question. I put in the calories that I burn in the 60 minutes I work out, don't know if it correct or not. I would think you would though

I AM SO EXCITED..I ORDERED THIS AND IT SHOULD BE HERE TODAY, CAN'T WAIT TO GET STARTED!!! I HOPE I LOVE IT AS MUCH AS YOU

WAY TO GO!!!

thanks everyone, going to do P90X that should shock my body!!!LOL

thanks I just ordered it!!!

I agree..I am 5'2" and weigh 115 and cannot imaqine me at 95!! I would be skin and bones, I don't think that is healthy

I don't add my job as exercise, I consider this as a everyday thing. I only add exercise that I take the time to do, as exercise (running, walking, weights etc) and yes I eat those calories, they are fuel for the body.

Personally I would do something if you are not to sore, even if it is just a mile or so, I find if I don't I feel worse than if I would have just done alittle..Keep up the good work!!!
