I was working out with my personal trainer.

I got a Polar FT4 from Amazon for about 60 bucks.

7 days a week

I love planks. My trainer has showed me many different ways to do them.

120 pounds since September 2011

I have a Polar FT4 and love it. It keeps track of calories burned and heartrate. That is what I wanted it for. I have never used Body Media.

Zone bar cinnamon roll flavor. That and a cup of coffee yum yum.

My husband and I decided to lose weight together. So far he has lost 105 pounds and I have lost 117 pounds. I think doing this together has made our relationship stronger. We wholeheartedly support one another.

My husband and I go to this gym and love it. The one we belong to has a great staff, lots of cardio machines and a great weight room with plenty of free weights. As for cost I think it is about 40 bucks a month. We pay less than that because we get a good discount through our insurance. Might be worth checking into. We…

117 pounds since September 2011.

65 during the day and evening. Off while sleeping.

My husband is my biggest supporter! We started this lifestyle change together and he is always encouraging me.

The sodium was 442 per serving. I used no salt added green beans and mushrooms. I also used a reduced sodium gravy mix. I try to watch my sodium too.

Last night I took 1 pound of ground venison (ground beef is fine too) one cup of diced carrots, one cup of diced celery, and 1/2 cup of diced onion and cooked all that together in large iron skillet. When the meat is browned add 2 cans of drained green beans and one can of mushrooms drained. Also prepare one package of…

I do not log cleaning as exercise. I figure it never helped me lose weight before. I only log exercise at the gym.

I started getting serious about weight loss September 22, 2011. That was the day the doctor put me on medication for high blood pressure. I was only 37 and I thought that was way too young. So I got serious, joined a gym and hired a personal trainer. As of today I have lost 116 pounds. I am happy to say that my doctor took…

I don't use either. I wear a HRM and enter that. It has been my experience that MFP overestimates calories burned.

I have a Polar FT4 and love it. I like seeing how many calories I burn in a workout.

I have a Polar FT4 and love it. I got it for around 60 bucks on Amazon.

I do interval training. Jog 1 minute walk 1 minute. I wear an HRM (PolarFT4). Today in an hour I burned 625 calories.

I used to have an issue with it. I was diagnosed with high blood pressure and put on meds for it. As of 2 weeks ago I am now blood pressure medication free! I check the labels on everything and always opt for the low sodium choice. I also cook everything from scratch and do not eat processed or fast food. I use the Mrs.…

No weight listed here in Michigan. Thank goodness!

Not weird at all. I have made them oatmeal before. Especially when the weather turns cold. I have also fixed spaghetti for them. My hens are very spoiled.

I finally made it below 200 pounds today for the first time in nearly 20 years. That made me kind of emotional today.

What about working with a personal trainer? They can teach you how to use the different machines and how to lift weights properly. I see one twice a week and he totally keeps me motivated. Knowing that someone is keeping track of my progress keeps me going.

I have a Polar FT4 and really like it. It keeps track of calories burned during workouts which is what I wanted. I got it for about 60 dollars on Amazon.

I never do.

Bolthouse farms dressings are good and also low calorie.

I have the Polar FT4 and it does come with a chest strap. I love seeing how many calories I can burn in a workout.

My husband is my number one supporter. He is always there for me.
