So if people think that 300 cal burn on 40 minute walk/jog on the treadmil is a lot, then why is my heart monitor calculating way over that? My main point for this thread was to evaluate whether my heart monitor and its app calculates my calorie burn accurately. Cause everyone says you get better readings by knowing what…

I with the previous calorie calculations from my exercise equipment, I eventually hit a plateau after 22 pounds (couldn't lose anymore no matter what)and kinda gave up on the diet and exercise for a while, then for the next 4 months without counting food portions or doing exercise, I didn't add a single pound.

I'm happy to say that EKG and other tests showed nothing, so the doctor says it's probably acid reflux which I know I get every now and then. So good to know I can push myself a bit more without worrying!

I know for a fact that I started gaining weight right after high school and one main reason was that back then I used to walk at least an hour a day going to school and back. Not to mention I also rode a bicycle. It's sad we have so many good habits as kids that we throw away when we get older.

It's an all year long drink for me. I…

Oh well. I did a little search on the internet ( while I was able to lift my fingers today, as I feel like a bag of anvils) its definitely a case of depleting my glycogen storage and all the water that comes with it. Today I also ate very very late in the day so that didn't help the case. So I'm bound to the couch today…

That could be an explanation. I am only weighing myself once a day, usually when I am with an empty stomach and bladder. No idea how much my weight fluctuates during the day. Time to find out!

I don't know how much of a healthy combination that is cause I'm a total newbie to dieting, but here is a smoothie I'm making for my self in the morning lately. A scoop of protein powder (vanilla flavor) one full banana, 5 oz of almond milk (again vanilla flavor) and crushed ice. Blend it all, add more crushed ice if the…

What a great advice from everybody! I'm keeping a lot of notes!

Man, awesome blast from the past. Thank you for that!

Thank you for the advice everyone. Its very helpful! As far as not depending on the full calories spend on exercise, I totally understand and I won't. At this point I'm using about half those calories at most. Right now I have a wall to get over, that is low energy, and craving for sweets! My body is fighting back! But…
