You burn caloires based on your intensity every website is going to show a different calories burned most likey.

Hi everyone my name is Kathy. I started MFP 2 weeks ago. I have lost weight before I will lose 40 then something will happen to set me off and I will gain back 60 I am tired of being tired.

I have been logging it under low impact areobics I do it under low becuase I can't keep up with the rest of the class yet so figure I don't burn as many calories as they do. I have ordered a heart rate montitor so I will be able to see the actual calories I do burn taken it.

Way to go! You are an inspiration for me as that is my main goal right now to get under 200 I need to lose more weight than that but right now I am just working on seeing that 199 on the scare. Congrats.

Thanks for the replies. I have decided to log my weight loss once a week on Tuesdays. Mt fav show Biggest Loser will be back on that day!

I have been reading reveiws on other sites and it seems polar is the way to go thanks I will check out the F7

My YMCA has them you can check out to use while you exercise I love them it is the only way you can put your weight and age into the treadmills to get a more accurate calorie count. I was thinking about buying one of my own though so I didn't always have to ask for one the brand they have is Polar and they work great.

You look amazing! Keep up the good work you should feel great and feel great about yourself

Love it thanks for sharing.

You look AWESOME GIRL!!!! Way to go you are a great inspiration to the rest of us just starting on our journeys I have a long way to go but can't wait to post before and after pics!

I have been working out every day since I started my weightloss challange. I only live 9 blocks away from my local YMCA which I also work at so it is easy to get there to work out.

I love Zumba but I can only make it to two of the zumba classes a week I am working the other times they are avaiable. I would love to get the zumba dvds but I have a very small living room and it is carpet and don't know how well it would work.
