  • I find it overestimates my calorie burn vs my HRM be about 10-20% on average.

  • Also, as a side note... I'd love to do this exact thread after the summer and see if the lists change at all!
  • Hockey hands down. If it wasn't SO expensive to do, I'd play 5x a week. Having way too much fun to be considered a workout, yet I burn 600-800 cals a game. <3

  • BUMP - So I can make a shopping list from all of your recommendations! We drive all the way across the Canada/US border to shop at Trader Joes we love it SO much. Some of my favourites so far: Eggplant hummus (so light!) 100 cal kettlecorn packs The chicken/apple sausages that have no pork product in them the cheap cheap…
  • I probably spend more than I should, but I look at it that I used to be paying for things to make me fat not fit (eating out, drinking, etc) Estimate for a year (not including food): Gym $500 Hockey $800 Random classes like hot yoga: $200 Runners (2 pairs) $240 Subscriptions to health magazines $40 Entries to runs $100…
  • I've always worn one.. whether or not anyone else thought I should! Even at size 14 ;)
  • Every couple of days to stay on track and to get a good base line of the weight trend. Always in the morning before breakast. Log every loss, and gains if they happen to stick around for a couple of days. I do take my measurements every 2 months at the moment, but think i'll bump that up to once a month to graph my…
  • I wish I could! I have 2 pomeranians and they have very different ideas in which way to run ;) I can jog a bit with one of them, but it seems to work better to just play chase with them in the dog park!
  • My favourites are the more supportive lululemon ones (50 rep, energy, all sport, tata tamer)
  • If you have a Trader Joes near you, check out their selection. I make the trip down from Canada just to stock up on them.
  • you and I are pretty close in stats :)
  • Age: 31 SW: 215 GW: 160 CW:197 GT: By the end of 2012
  • I'm the same way. I try to drink a TON of water after to distract me, and recently I've been trying to time my workouts so they fall naturally before a full meal.
  • They're fun for a break, plus you can do them with a friend and it's fun. I have 3 of the Just Dance games and Zumba for Wii. All are good, and I can get a decent calorie burn on my HRM if I really put some effort into it.
  • Here's a comparison of the me at my (almost) lowest vs (almost highest) when I gained the weight back. I'm almost 5'7. My goal is to get back down there again! About half way so far ;)
  • (Re)started Jan 1, down 18 lbs so far. Hoping for more inches at my next measurement day on June 1.
  • Are you into dvd's at all? Bob Harper has 2 kettle ball ones out, one is more cardio and one is focused on strength
  • I use the 'zombies, run' app on my phone and i LOVE IT. Something so motivating about the storyline and the intensity when it says zombies are on your tail. I'm sure I look crazy when I burst into a sprint sometimes out there, but it makes running much more enjoyable for me. https://www.zombiesrungame.com/
  • I've tucked mine in other areas depending on the sport (sports bra, tied inside shorts, etc) and it's worked for me.
  • Going to try it this week - interested what everyone else thinks.
  • I try to wear my HRM pretty regularly while playing hockey. Tend to get a read out of 550-750 per game depending on how many lines we have out there + what position I'm playing. That includes warm up and a bit of cool down, so maybe an hour or so of calculating.
  • I have a polar F4 watch with a chest strap, its an older model with basic settings. I find its more accurate than the ones just on the wrist. You can find them pretty affordably on amazon or ebay. However, I am super intrigued by the new Nike fuelband, since it tracks your activities all day and may have to pick one up…
  • I aim for 1360 net a day - hoping for a 1.5lb/week loss. I do try and eat back more of the calories on days I play hockey tho...
  • Weight to be consdered no longer obese- 186 Start Weight - 211 Week 1 weigh in - 207.8 Week 2 weight in - 207 hmm.. going to have to be careful over the long weekend! Thought I had a really good week, but it didnt show up number-wise
  • Forgot to post on Friday, will be better this week! Weight to be consdered no longer obese- 186 Start Weight - 211 Week 1 weigh in - 207.8
  • This will be a good challenge for me! Gotta aim high right? CW- 211 Weight to be consdered no longer obese- 186
  • I really enjoy quinoa in its regular form (it's actually a seed) you can cook it in a rice cooker using the same timing for white rice. I get a pretty big bag of it at costco for a reasonable price.
  • Have you tried quinoa? Either pasta made with its flour, or straight up? Cooked quinoa is a great source of iron, manganese, potassium, riboflavin, copper, phosphorous, tryptophan, B6, niacin and thiamine. One cup of cooked quinoa has only 220 calories. It also has 5 grams of fiber and 8 grams of protein.
