I see that you run in place to get exercise at different times. What would be the calories burned with something like this? Is it the same thing as running outside?

Thanks cmriverside.

I not only had a bad day, but a bad week! I didn't go over my calories terribly, but I seemed to want chocolate or whatever. I would go to the fridge when I wasn't hungry and so on.

I would say about a month or so. If you're not good at taking meds on time, like me, ask for Metformin XR which is time release. This way you can take it all at once and get it over with.

I work at a hospital and now I am asking myself, "waht is in the cafeteria that is good and healthy rather than fried and unhealthy?" It feels good to know…

Hi, I also just started using the fitnesspal and love it. I lost 33 pounds about five years ago and kept it off, but thn moved to Texas and the humidity (and no support system) and gained it all back.
