I was thinking a salad, raw veggies and fruit, not a meal because I…

FT4 Polar HRM Help
I got a Polar FT4 in July, but have been experiencing problems since my fiancee decided to wash it AND put it in the dryer. Has anyone ever experienced this? It will sometimes say check transmitter, or measure my In-Zone at 110%, but if I move it around it will bounce back to normal, so sometimes I'm not even sure it is…

Just Need To Vent (Update)
A week ago I ranted about not seeing the scale move after all my hard work and how really upset I was that I did not see any results.
