Lunch ideas?

Polar heart rate monitor - help?
I'm thinking of getting a heart rate monitor. I've narrowed it down to a polar, but there are so many! I've seen a lot of people on here talk about the FT4, FT40, and FT7, and I saw a FA20. Currently I'm doing videos at home such as the 30 day shred. Soon I'm going to start the c25k, and am hopefully going to join a gym…

Slow or leisurely pace?
Not sure how I would log my walks with the kids. We walked 3.05 miles and it took about 80 minutes, and the other day we walked 1.03 miles and it took about 25 minutes. Would this be considered slow or leisurely paced? Thanks in advance.

Sedentary or Lightly Active?
I'm not sure which to set my goals to? My plan is to do strength training for 30 minutes 4 times a week, and cardio for 30 minutes 5-6 days a week. I'm a stay at home mom, I don't drive so I walk my kids back and forth to school each day (only 5-10 minutes each way). Thanks for any input!

I've seen a lot of things like Up, Fitbit, body media ect. There are so many different options that its hard to narrow it down. I'm…

Exercise bikes???
Is there a difference between these styles? Spin, upright, and recumbent? Or is it just personal preference?
