thank you for sharing your experience...i do over do it with sodium....sometimes double the goal amount...i'll keep an eye on that too.

Yes, I weigh-in in the mornings and not wearing heavy clothing/slippers, etc., no food, just after using the washroom :))

I've heard that too and was afraid that may be the case with my machine :(( I will go to get a heart monitor either tomorrow or monday. Any brands to suggest?

True, thank you for providing a different perspective to look at this issue. I guess I felt I had to make 1200/day because I wanted to lose weight by end of August...so that's why I've been strict and giving myself a bit of a hard time with following the daily goals. However, like you mentioned, it's only one day, and it…

Very good suggestion- to look at the calories per week instead of per day...then I wont be killing myself to burn it off. Thank you for giving a different perspective to looking at this...I am new to all of this, so I really appreciate it.

haha! thank you for the suggestion, i will do that :) i appreciate the constructive comments and not the sarcastic ones that try to bring me down. thank you lots ^_^

it's 10pm here...it's a bit more convenient to do this indoors at night time. :) thanks or the suggestion though.

thank you for the advice, will do :)

yes, still struggling to be more disciplined in with my eating habits...

"In the middle of" meaning that I've done 3 sets: Elliptical Trainer 30 329 Elliptical Trainer 30 320 Elliptical Trainer 30 362 and on the laptop now, but will continue two more sets of 30 mins until i burn off the remainder of the 700+ calories...that's what I meant.

Elliptical Trainer 30 329 Elliptical Trainer 30 320 Elliptical Trainer 30 362 30 mins sets...the # after is the calories burned according to my machine...i want to do one more hour.

awesome...calories in/calories out....nothing else then i can keep exercising back to my goal which is 1200 calories per day...woooo

hey sorry, my goal is 1200 calories per day, so 3000-1000=2000, still have a bit to go, right?
