Awesome! Thanks EVERYONE for their input!!!

Yes, from what I'm reading it looks like I need to get a HRM. I'm not sure how many types/brands there are, or if it even matters, but can anyone suggest a HRM that they use and like?

Gotchya!!! Thanks! :o)

I'm just starting to understand the calorie thing. I have my goal set at 1200 cal/day, and I thought that if I burned 400 calories in exercise a day, that I would lose weight even faster... but in my case it's doing the exact opposite- My body is storing the calories for energy because I'm not eating enough. I should be…

(Right now my net is red because I ate over my goal of 1200 cal and didn't exercise :o/ ) Normally I eat 1200 cal. a day and then exercise to burn off 400 cal. making my net usually around 800 cal. Should my net instead be 1200? It always tells me that I'm under my calorie goal. Is that bad? or will that make me lose wight…
