Glad you asked this; I've been wondering myself. I have a Polar FT4, and I didn't see anything about this in the instructions (I think I need to go online for more detailed info). Does anyone know if Polar HRMs deduct the BMR? I suspect not. I also imagine one should update their weight every now and then.

If you're just starting out, I would highly recommend that you simplify your approach. To me, trying to keep specific macro numbers under a certain (arbitrary?) point is too complicated. I feel that the heavy-duty macro-tracking is more suited to people who have their basic diet under control and are refining their macros…

^Very strongly second this. To start, I would focus on moderating your regular diet (portion control) and limiting/cutting out a few really high impact indulgences (e.g., soda, fast food). I still eat bread and pasta, but not with the gusto I used to. I'm having pancakes this morning. Feel free to add me, and good luck!

Hi there. I'm 48 and trying to lose 25 pounds. Been doing this for 2 weeks and I've dropped 4 pounds, but I'm not sure if all of that is entirely real. Feel great though, especially being in control of my eating. I hope to get at least a profile picture soon.

Thanks for the replies. Yeah, I can feel it just standing up and down, but it's not too intense. Glad to hear it's just the normal soreness one would feel after working muscles that have been neglected for too long. I'm looking forward to the class today!
