Pregnant and exercising with HRM??
Hi, I'm getting a Polar ft4 sports watch and HRM and I'm wondering if it's ok to use it whilst pregnant? I wonder if it will be accurate at tracking calories burned when exercising, nothing major but mainly brisk walks. Any advice appreciated!

Do you use digital kitchen scales for things like rice etc?
Do many of you guys use a digital kitchen food scale? Did you find it helped/did you notice much difference in portions etc when you started using one? I might buy one this weekend.
