What i've read is that it does measure calories as well, throughout the whole day, as opposed to a heart rate monitor that only measures it through cardiovascular exercise. At this point, I could care less what my heart rate is, because I know that I am doing some rigorous exercise, but i would just like a more accurate…

Thanks for the tip! I guess coming from weighing in everyday, a whole week kind of sounds like a long time. I will definitely try this and see how it goes.

Thanks so much for replying! It looks like the better option, and i love all of the features after reading up on it!

I am in! Is there a group I need to join?

I would love to join! Is there still room?

If you made a group, I would definitely join! A great support system is key!

Awesome job ladies! Now I feel lazy! LOL. I'm ready to get this body back in shape ;-)!

Welcome Tea! We all feel the same way, but it is do able...just make sure to exercise and eat right in between the holidays! Do you have a goal you want to set forth for the next 9 days? Then we will do another one for Christmas!

I haven't lost anything or exercised, but i do plan on getting the wii fit out today and getting something done!

Awesome job CC!

Alright! Mine is to lose at least 5lbs by Thanksgiving. Totally do-able (i hope...)

Sure GMS! Welcome!

Alright! This group is officially closed! We are at about 9 ppl i think! I will send an e-mail to all of you soon!

Thanks for the encouragement! Let's get this show on the road!

Alright! I'm getting so excited about having a small group of people that can focus on each other and make it through the hardest months of the year for those trying to eat well and exercise! @CC- congrats on doing your 1st 5K! I want to sign up for one of those in the near future. maybe in January or something! We will…

Mrsdauer- Awesome! We can do this! Nutty- Of course! That's a great goal!

I am feeling the same way, which is why I thought if i have to be accountable for my actions to someone else, this may actually work! Plus...since Thanksgiving is coming up soon, this will keep me in check for at least the next 3 weeks! Yikes, I think you are very brave for not eating sweets after Halloween! Try your best,…

I hope mine get smaller! I'm at a D and would love to be a C right about now :)

Welcome and good luck!!!

Ok thanks ladies! I too have cravings during this time, but I think that if i stick to what I am eating now, that I will end up losing more then I did before. I will go ahead and weigh myself on the 1st day and then weigh at the end and see the change. Thanks for ur help! Also, the tip about lean meats, I will definitely…

Let us know how it goes! I may want to purchase it :)

Wow guys! Thanks so much for all of your input! It has really helped me to see where I am and what I should shoot for! I am trying my best to get to 10 cups of water a day. I feel like i'm always going to the bathroom! LOL. Lisaking869-- you are SOOOOO right about the Tazo teas! I used to work at Starbucks and the Passion…

kimi, how has that worked out so far?

TrainerRobin, Can you tell i'm scared?! LOL. I just dont want to mess up. and i also want to make sure that too much fruit is ok. Like the breakfast I had today was a grapefruit and a banana with orange juice. It was pretty filling, and contained a good amount of carbs, just not "bread carbs". But i would like to add…

Ladies thanks so much for all of your help! I'm already feeling more motivated then I did yesterday! I went to the grocery store yesterday and bought salads, and fruits, and high fiber breads, and 1% milk. Today, I ate 1 grapefruit and 1 banana for breakfast, with OJ. That kept me until 10 where I had a yogurt. Then i had…

Actually mine is the same...i started at 188.6 and am working my way down to 150 and i still only have 1200 calories for me to eat per day. I dont know why, but i've been sticking to it. It told me that my estimated calories per day was about 1800 or something like that, so i guess it just depends, or maybe its because of…

Hey Moon! I have about 36lbs to lose. What i've come to realize is that i eat...for no reason. If i think its time to eat, then i do, and sometimes i just eat to have had something in my mouth. this is horrible. its not like i ate a whole bunch of big meals, but a little bit of crackers here, cheese here, soup here, stuff…

Hi Sunyside! I actually want to lose 36 lbs i guess. I'm trying to be 150. I'm really excited about having someone else that is about the same weight as me and has the same goals! We definitely have to motivate each other. Hi pdasilva! Thanks for coming back on and i really hope that you stick around :). I think the point…
