I'm feeling the same way... would love to see what others have to say....

BUMP!

I count it, but want to hear what others say! I've heard other people count coffee, tea or any clear liquid really, but I don't know?

I'm having the same issue...BUMP!

This is a great question - I need to know more about this too!

Help please!

I need to "bump" this, cause I need more feedback on the HRM question. Can anyone confirm which Polar's count calories? Any other suggestions for brand (need calorie counter with chest strap for general fitness/biking ? Anyone have the ProForm Hybrid Trainer Heart-Rate Monitor w/Chest Strap? Use this link to view the…

Thanks for this advice! I've been looking on there & it seems to me that only the FT4 & FT7 show calories burned. The less expensive FT1, FT2, FS2 & FS3 don't say it specifically in the overview. Can anyone verify this??? Also do they all have a chest strap? Is it a separate purchase? As a beginner, I probably only need…

I'm from MN. Originally St. Cloud area, but in Edina/Bloomington now. Where are you from? Feel free to friend me - same to anyone else, MN or not!

I've been having the same problem! I posted on it last week & found a few others who were feeling the same way. There were also a few people who had a lot to say about the subject. Feel free to friend me & we can support each other!

I've been feeling the same way this week. Not that my week has been as bad as yours, but just want to say that I know how you are feeling. We'll get back on track this week & keep the momentum going! Just hope your cold goes away quickly - get some rest!

Thanks for posting this!!!

I also have Active 2 & only log the total time & calories burned. Do your ankles hurt from all the running in place?

Thanks for these links - have to comment so I can come back again & again!

Oh I know, I see people finishing the log at 9am...hmmmm. That's willpower - I plan, but the totals are slightly different by the end of the day. I like your quote. How old are they? I'll send a friend request!

Hi & welcome! I've only been here a little over a month & could use the support back. Good luck to you on your journey! Friend request sent!

Request sent - welcome!

Me too! I want to consume less sugars too, but it's everywhere... all the fruit I love, carrots, protein/fiber bars. etc... Can someone clarify?

I have a similar situation with sugars, although I am not at risk for diabetes yet, my diet used to be nothing but sugar. Even though I've changed my eating habits drastically & cut out the soda, I still go over on sugars. I, too, have been wondering if I natural sugars can be ignored (or discounted slightly?) - I would…

Same here! I'd like to come back to this list again & again. Thanks for sharing everyone!

Do either of these have aspertame?

Friendship requested! Good luck on your progress. I look forward to encouraging you!

I have the Active 2, but don't know the difference between that & the 1st one. So far, I'm liking the Active 2, but it has some glitches: the game pauses when the remote hasn't been used for a while (which you don't use often) & when the Wii Fit board (optional) disconnects. I like that it has the HRM feature, since I…

Me too! I'm always over

Hi I just quit 2 months ago, so I know how hard it is. I used the patch. I smoked for 15 out of 30 years of my life. My whole family has smoked & then quit. You can do this - I know that if I can, you can too. My husband quit 1 year before me, so I can totally relate to what you are going through. I would love to join your…

Thanks for friending me - need more to do the same!

Friend request sent! I look forward to encouraging your progress!

BUMP ---- me too!

Welcome to MFP! Good to have you! I am pretty new here as well & still trying to get the hang of it all too. Congrats on taking these first big steps. From what I have been reading on here (forums, etc.) you don't want to be eating less than 1200 calories/day because your body will think it's starving & store fat instead…

Thanks, I just realized it's packed with sugar too!
