This may seem like a ridiculous question, but....
Are there any heart rate monitors out there that will tell you the miles you've walked or run? I know that is the functionality of a pedometer, but I was hoping that there might be one device that I can get to calculate the calories, miles and time. :flowerforyou:

Don't mean to complain, but...
I have been losing weight consistently, and I am truly happy with my progress. When I started out I was burning mad calories with just a little exercise. I understand that as your body gets used to activity you burn fewer calories, but it seems that even with the crazy workouts that I do with the CrossFit folks that I am…

Just one more question... (at least for now)
I was wondering if anyone out there that owns, or uses a bodybugg has found that it under estimates the calories burned. I bought a bodybugg and I've been using it exclusively to count my calories burned for the day, but it seems that I burn way fewer calories than I would expect, even with majorly difficult workouts.

Just when I thought I was making progress...

I am working hard to stick to my plan, with very few variations and deviations, but I am sooooo bored with the "healthy stuff". I know that there are groups out there that are able to eat wheat bulgar and berries everyday with relative…

Calories from warm-ups
I do my workouts at a Crossfit gym, and I have never counted the calories I burn during my warm-ups into the overall calorie expenditure. Our warm-ups are dynamic to say the least we perform jumping jacks, high knees, fast feet, push-ups and squats (sometimes they throw in other torture maneuvers) before the actual 20-35…

Oh..Save me from my family
I will be going on vacation to visit my sister and grandparents, whom I love dearly, but they are absolute feeders. When we are all together the agenda is Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. The plans always revolve around food, and lots of food. I have a very difficult time telling them no, or asking them to alter the menu, but…
