Hey hkystar, When I got my polar watch it wasn't working at all, I had followed the instructions to no avil so I rang Polar up and they had me post the watch, they fixed it under warranty and it has been fine since, I think some of the watches are possibly glitched. But Polar customer service is the best I have come…

Hey Jenbo I have had the exact problem but tonight I put on my workout kit, grabbed a book and went for it on my exercise bike before i knew it it was 45 minutes and according MFP 403 cals later!!! Very much worth it. As a few of the others have mentioned music is really helpful especially some upbeat "lets get it moving"…

i use stuff off e-bay...maximuscle..nana flavour x

if you are leaving 300-400 cals each day it could be the reason you are not loosing weight... try to hit the cals reccommended and see how that goes alot of people make the mistake of cutting too many cals leaving the body in "starvation mode"! give it a go for this next month, that included eating your exercise cals too…

I decided this year I would commit to being healthier...for life- so i bought myself a rather expensive gym member ship but feel too ashamed to go... which is pathetic but try as i might i just can't seem to summon up the courage to go in... any advice i know how silly this is but i needed to know i am not alone xxx:sad:
