i may be naive but the objective of a HRM is to track your heart rate = calories burnt. If you're doing any form of exercise given your heart will be working more than when you're resting.... you'll get calories burnt from strength training too won't you?

because?

swimming maybe? Ask your family Dr for advice on this one i reckon

I'd suggest planning your day ahead; the night before. So by the time you wake, you know what's on the menu for you. and I find in times it's all seeming too much, literally taking it a day at a time makes a huge difference!

sorry to hear that (assuming it's a negative/unwanted gain) but you need to take into account what else is going on...weight gain may not be soley down to meds people take.

with various mental health illnesses come various symptoms including; low energy poor appetite or increase poor sleep or increase increased energy my point is don't rush to point the finger at the medication if it's also helping your illness because some issues may hve been pre-existing. maintain your calorie intake diary…

anyone at all?

thanks very much. you're right - it's mainly the convenience that comes with protein shakes - figured i already enjoy smoothies why not add protein to them. then the snack bars; around 3/4pm i need some snack of sorts to carry me to dinner time (6.30ish pm) - that way im not ravenous when I get in and eat everything in…

thanks

Thank you both. I am buying in local supermarket. Horley's is reasonably low cals I reckon so it's not causing a dent in my intake for the day. "As long as you avoid the "mass gainer" type products" - which are these? I'll have a look at the website you have suggested in interim.

good thread because my FT7 has been annoying me lately. i nearly chucked mine out until I thought to change the battery. well that has worked for the last week alone and today it was annoying me so much I gave up on the whole work out! how does the stupid thing tell me my HR is 00 when I am jogging at 6km/hr? you kidding…

recommend heart rate monitor. i personally think it's most accurate

i can't say i know my username but if you find random requests - it may be me

I use a Polar FT7. Thinking it's time for upgrade but still in same brand. it's been loyal I think you can change your settings so they don't sync with MFP...at least that's what i did when using MapMyRun

Bra for me = undergarment

Luckee-Me OMG well done on your loss!!
