I'm thinking of starting this soon and all I've heard so far are positives about it. Would like to know if anyone out there has done this and gotten any negatives. Positive feedback is good too :) .

Polar HRM during swimming.
Has anyone used their hrm for swimming? I'm concerned about how much water it can take since it says I can use it for swimming.

I would like to hear recommendations for one, please. If it's nicely price that would be cool too.

What time do you eat your dinner?
Personally I eat mine usually around 7pm. Fact or myth, I'm not sure, but I've heard two different times for this. After 5 you're metabolism slows down. Also I've heard after 7pm. So I just assume between the hours of 5 and 7 is when your metabolism slows down for the day. So second question, is this true or does this vary…

What kind of exercises can I do until my sprain ankle heals?
About two weeks ago I sprained my ankle and thought I gave it a good rest and soldiered on with my workouts. Turns out my ankle wasn't fully healed yet and today is the 3rd day I'm giving it to heal. (elevated, iced and wrap.) What workouts can I do to burn some calories today? I usually walk but I don't want to put much…

What foods can I eat to satisy my appetite and calorie goal?
I've found myself lately to feel like I have a black hole in my stomach. Maybe I'm not eating foods that are filling but I usually eat within on calorie range of 1200. Sometimes I go over. What can I eat to satisfy my appetite guys?

Feeling the burn from every day activities, is this normal?
Ok, so I workout anywhere from 5-7 days a week and I burn most of my calories twice a week doing martial arts (around 600 calories). We just started a new workout that my body will soon get used to and I was pretty sure the next day. I've noticed when I do every day things like climb the stairs, lift and carry around my…

One day, I will look this itty bitty again...
http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y330/Seamoan87/oldme.jpg Until than, its work hard for it! I kinda regret that I sorta didn't like my body than, just because I was getting the "abs cut" and it was too masculine to me. I won't complain about that, ever again...just avoid it lol.

Have you guys heard of the myth...
or maybe it's a fact about thirst and water? That sometimes we confuse thirst with hunger when it's really thirst? I had a friend who told me this and she had started to consume more water when she felt "hungry." If you're not getting enough water in a day I could understand this, but is this a fact or myth?

Who here eats 6 (small) meals a day?
And what is/are your workout regimen? I feel that as I start to workout more, I'll probably need to be eating 6 small meals but I can't fathom the idea. I've done it before and it feels like I'm always eating and sometimes I'm not hungry enough to eat that much. And I'm just curious to see how everyone else does it.

Does anyone have cheat days?
I don't know if this is a silly question. Just wondering if anyone has cheat days or how I like to called it "treat yo self" day? I know some diet experts say its ok to eat certain foods in moderation and not to deny yourself some of your favorites, what do you guys think about that also?

Calories ingested = calories burned? Need some advice and he
Ok. I just want to know if this differs from person to person or if there is a middle. If you eat a certain amount of calories in a day, say you meet yours, mine is 1200. Do you need to burn at least half that? I do martial arts about twice a week and burn about 600 calories when I do it. And I plan on burning just about…

What is your biggest meal of the day?
I know they say breakfast is important to eat and some also say it should be your biggest meal of the day, but I don't really go by this. I always try to make dinner my smallest meal with breakfast or lunch being the biggest. What do you guys think? Do you think one meal of the deal is most important to be the largest or…
