My HRM is set up perfectly. I even used my Zumba instructors once and it said the same amount of calorie burn. Im in good shape. its normal. I'm perfectly happy eating the amount of calories that i eat. I eat sooo much and when Im not exercising, Im not very active at all. Im a stay at home mom so its not like im doing…

Well, I do either running for a half an hour or I go on a 2 hour long walk with my son outside. Also, I do zumba 2 days a week. I do ONE of these cardio exercises every day. I also do Jillian Michaels 30 day Shred 2-3 times a week. I THOUGHT I was burning a lot more calories than I was until I spent 120 dollars on an HRM…

its just my hands and feet. No other places on my body are discolored. I ill get it checked out asap. thanks!

I dont eat 1,400 PLUS my exercise calories. I eat a total of 1,400-1,500 a day.

im in the same boat as you!!

i highly doubt that. its like a tint to my actual skin color

1,400-1,500 depending on how much i exercise that day. I always eat my exercise calories.

anymore feed back??:)

great idea, thanks!

I wish the place had the nutritional info! Either way, it would still be hard to judge since i dont eat the greasy fatty skin or any of the dark meat.

Thanks a ton for all the great suggestions! Actually, I hardly eat ANY orange veggies and fruit at all. Although lately I have been eating many more tomatoes than normal so I bet thats it! Red tomatoes can turn my hands yellow?? Its not even very noticeable...I'm just interested in whats up with my body. I will probably…

I actually just got tested for hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism and the tests came back negative..

YESSS and I hate it! I get so cold sometimes that it literally ruins my day. Ill be out with my husband at a packed bar where everyone is hot and ill be shivering just wishing I was home under a blanket. I still get hot sometimes when the weather is really hot but usually i am covered in goose bumps while everyone else is…

When I run on the treadmill, I usually walk at 5.0 for 3 minutes in the beginning then run at 10mph (according to the treadmill) at a 1% incline for 27 minutes. The treadmill says I burn like 450 calories and my HRM gave me a rude awakening that I only burn about 200 at the most! ughhhhhh. oh AND yesterday, Kevin and I…

Laughing cow light cheese wedges are without a doubt the best cheese option for dieting but if you're not looking for a spreadable cheese, try Kraft fat free American singles.

sportline isnt a good brand? It has pretty good reviews. for $120 it BETTER be good. If not, it has a 5 year warranty and ill send it right back.

I ended up buying the Sportline woman's duo 1060. I have yet to try it but it looks awesome! The workers at ****s said its a really good one so hopefully I love it!

thanks everyone!!

that sounds great but I do want to be able to track distance as well..

Whats unhealthy looking about Lisa Lillian?

Awesome! I would LOVE to burn that many calories! Ill be eating trail mix the whole time in that case! hahaha. When were done, were also going out to a big dinner then staying at a hotel to zonk out after all that hiking!:)

You all are so awesome! Thank you for the great ideas. I'm really not sure how steep the trail is going to be. Were going on Slide Mountain in the catskills...ever heard of it? I know its the highest mountain in the catskills. If we only do that one, I THINK my hubby said its 5 miles up and 5 down? maybe? I hope I burn…

OH! and I had a girls night wine party not too long ago and I made "pumpkin pie dip". I didnt use exact measurements because some people like it more creamy and some people like it more pumpkiny. Mix fat free cool whip, canned pure pumpkin, cinnamon, and 2 packets of equal. Then serve some low fat graham crackers or apple…

This morning for breakfast, I had a bowl of oatmeal and I mixed in 1/4 cup canned pure pumpkin, cinnamon, and 2 equals then put a little bit of fat free reddi whip on top and it was delicious!!! It was like eating oatmeal pumpkin pie!:) It came to about 185 calories.

I'm in loveeeee with Walden farms dressings!! I just ordered 55 dollars worth of stuff from their site. There are a few stores around me that sell their products BUT they only have a couple different kinds of dressings to choose from. If something has zero calories, I'll take it! whether it tastes amazing or not. In my…

Thats why I told her to see her doctor.

Dont let all these people freak you out! I'm going through the same thing right now except I'm going on 6 months without a period. I have been regularly seeing my primary physician AND my gynecologist about it and finally after blood work for thyroid and anemia, they realized its just because I lost a lot of weight and…

yeah I felt seriously depressed this morning after I weighed myself. I have been "off" lately. Extremely moody and grumpy and sad about my little weight gain.

Thanks very much everyone. Luckily I'm only supposed to be on it for 2 months. Its just really discouraging to look at the scale and see my weight go up. Also, it gives me hugeeeee mood swings and I feel bad for my hujsband since he has to deal with me! haha. I have tried several different birth control's in the past and…
