You look like a new person! Simply beautiful.

You look amazing! Keep up the great work. :) Can't wait to post some of my own progress pics!

Bump.. Thanks!!!

A little bit of something is better than a whole lot of nothing! You should keep it up. Add another minute every day, I bet that will make it easier for you to keep going. Also, if you don't have a lot of time you need to make time. Stop watching that 30 minute tv show and get up and exercise during it instead. This is…

Thank you so much! I will keep working towards eating at least most of my exercise cals. It may take me a while, but I will get there. I am currently burning between 500 and 900 ish a day. Sometimes more, sometimes less.

You look fantastic! What a change! Once I feel like I can do it, I will definitely be hitting up some Insanity and some 30 Day Shred!

Great post! I have a hard time meeting my calories but I have tried much harder lately. Today was much better than the past few, and my exercise was up pretty high as well. I have made sure to eat several snack and my "6 small meals" so to speak. I eat as much as I can at one time. I add in extra walnuts or pecans here and…

I have been having the same problems. One thing I have done is add a protein shake in the mornings. I wasn't getting enough protein before and my calories have been way under until today. I just tried to snack a little more. I just forget to eat sometimes, which sounds dumb but I used to eat only once a day.

Mine does this as well. I notice that it usually says Fat Burn during my lower heart rates, 120ish (when I am warming up). It says it on the screen that displays the heart rate and time *during* your workout.

Love, love, love. Thanks for the great post!

Mine has been very accurate, I have an FT7. I burn about 488 cals in a 55 minute workout, depending on what I do for the duration.

You look great! Thanks for the motivating pics. I have a long ways to go but at least I know it can be done!

I made that mistake myself the other day...no worries. I pick right back up, do some exercise to make up for it a bit if I can. If not, I have a better day tomorrow! It is okay to indulge once in a while, just don't make it a habit! :)

I can definitely tell a difference! That is amazing and I am so proud of you! Thanks for the encouraging pictures!

I thought about that as well...but I too just consider it a bonus. lol. I know I probably don't calculate all of my calories to a 'T', so it doesn't hurt to get that extra little cardio in.

That is fantastic! You look amazing. Thanks for the inspiration. I know that this will pay off in the end and your pictures are perfect motivation.

I just bought a Polar FT7 and I LOVE it. It is very accurate and came with an adjustable chest strap.

I always go over my sugar with fruit too. It is the largest part of my sugar intake, in fact. I ignore it because I am always right on target everywhere else. Better I get that sugar from fruit than from processed foods or sweets.

Heck yes! He is rarely on his anyway, phone or fb. I get on fb but usually don't talk to anyone except old high school friends. My cell is only used to talk to him and my best girl friend.

It's been 9 days since I started and I do think that exercise makes you want more and more! I started at 2 miles, then 3 miles, 4 miles, etc. Today I did three miles straight without stopping and planning on doing another two tonight! I think I might even do some light strength training. It makes me feel really good after…

You look amazing! Thank you for the inspiration. I cannot wait until I can post the same pics. I need to take my 'before' pics, I am too ashamed of what I look like!

I ordered the FT7 in Red and Silver! I am planning on uploading it to my computer and tracking so I can keep better tabs on the patterns I am setting for myself.

I'm not a man or a child. I am 25 and I am of the opinion that you should not intervene unless she is in an unsafe or immoral relationship that you disagree with. My parents were always meddling and it really made me want to rebel even more. I lived there until I was 22 and was always treated like a child. There is a…

Thanks for all of your help and opinions! I am definitely going with the FT7...just can't decide on the black/gold or the red/silver. lol

Did yours come with a chest strap? I think I am leaning towards the FT7 because it clearly has more features and they are all important to me.

That helps! The FT7F is more expensive, but that doesn't mean it is better. I don't want anything super difficult, just want to know an accurate calorie burn really and safe HR range.

I was having trouble meeting my calories as well. Feel free to take a look at my diary and see where it started getting better. I added a Whey Protein shake with fresh fruits and berries. This boosted my protein and calories just enough that I am actually able to workout more and longer without tiring! Good luck! Oh and…

Amazing!! You look beautiful. Keep up the excellent work! This is such an inspiration for me as I am looking to lose a little over 100 lbs.

Oh boy can I relate!!! I have lost 85 lbs before and gained it back and then some. I am now down 18 lbs and have 108 to go before I am at my goal weight, 160 lbs. Once there, I will decide if I want to go further. Good luck with your journey! Add me!
