I laughed out loud!:laugh:

Trust your HRM! As long as you put in all your stats, it should be totally accurate, especially with the chest strap. Oops didn't read the last part. If it doesn't take into consideration your height and gender it may still be a bit off. In order to get a completely accurate reading you would need one that has weight,…

Wow, that's a huge difference for only 1 week. Great work!

Strength training is definitely for every body type!

I would start out with Jillian's 30 Day Shred, it's a great workout. Start out with Level 1, it's only a 20 min workout. Should be a good place for you to start. Good luck!

Really? I thought this site was for encouragement, not bashing?

It is SO worth it! Much more accurate, no under or overestimating calories.

Eat! You need to eat, even if you're not hungry. At least get a protein shake or something!

all sugar or just refined sugar?

The Polar FT4 will fit anyone. My wrists are 6" around and it fits perfectly and has the chest strap. I highly recommend it!

Surprisingly most yogurts are not low in carbs, neither is fresh fruit or english muffins. Just because they're low cal doesn't make them low carb! I definitely want to try out the low carb pancake recipe. Looks delish!

I measure without a bra.

This is a good question! I usually count the cup after its cooked. It shrinks so much but I don't know if this is correct or not.

Super cool! I love Etsy!

Circuit training will give you an estimate! I tend to burn 600 calories in a 60 min Body Pump class. It's a great class, you will love it. Be prepared to work hard and be sore 24 hrs after!

Great work girl! We're at the same weight right now!!

Definitely consult a pediatrician before you start any diet for a child.

Yes it has a strap! That's what makes it so accurate!

Polar FT4 is the one I have, love it, no complaints. Google it!

Fajitas are usually low cal if you skip the guacamole!

Agreed. I have the Polar FT4 and it was definitely worth the money! It tracks heart rate and then tells you how many calories burned. It's easy to use and totally accurate. I got it at Best Buy for $89.

Sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing, going to try it this week!

I just found out about this. I want to try it out! Let us know how it works for you!

Yep, definitely eat more. :)

I have the same and love it also. I got it for $89 at Best Buy.

Aahhhh I LOVE the Trina Turk one. I must have that......IF I meet my goal by Summer!

I REALLY like the first link....super cute suits.

I WISH I could wear a VS suit but I have 2 small kids that will pull that bikini right off and show the whole world what mama's got! I love the Athleta swim suits but they're mostly athletic looking, not sexy. Not sure if I will be wearing a bikini this Summer, I'm content with how my body is now and I know that it will…

I had that happen and I had some spotting too but it's mostly due to my birth control pill. I'm sure it's normal but maybe you should talk to your dr about it.

No you should not stop eating fruit! The fruit from sugar is good for you, just like the carbs from fruit are good carbs and your body needs them to function. The sugar amounts on MFP are low. As long as you're going over your daily amount from just fruits, you're fine.
