YOU should not need to explain to anyone about your diary! This is your journey and unless you ask someone for help it is not their business! I understand reading diaries for ideas but whatever you chose to eat needs no explanation to ANYONE. You ate only accountable to you!

You will want one that has both the watch and chest strap. Sometimes there are ones with just the watch and it reads your heart rate from your wrist. Those are about as…

This challenge is not meat to be an intimidator, at all! This challenge is meant for YOU to PUSH YOURSELF at the level YOU feel comfortable at!
