And approx how many calories would you have for…

The Lighter I Get, I Have No Clue What Exercises To Do?
Hey everyone... I was just looking for some input, perhaps from people in my same kind of situation. I started in February at 250, I am not 172 lbs.

Really wish FB sharing worked again :(
I really had so many family members and friends phsyced up ... when they'd see MFP post on my FB wall of successes, exercise logs and so on... and all of a sudden it stopped working. I tried everything that was suggested to link it again... so sad. This is such a great site and shy of manually copying and pasting things…

I am really fed up with people right now...
Ok... Please, am I alone on this or do others agree... Say your calorie goal is 1200 for the day... does that mean you can eat 1200 calories of CRAP and then expect weight loss just due to a deficit. Give me a break!!!! Why do people not get this... you need to put HEALTHY food into your body. The more crap you eat, no…

30 Day Shred a Plateau Buster???
Hey Y'all I've hit a plateau which has frustrated me greatly after having lost 54 lbs since February. I realize I may need to switch up my workouts. I hate boot camp stuff, or at least I thought that way when I was 245lbs. At 192 lbs, perhaps my body won't mind this butt kicking program? Has anyone got any opinions on this…

Polar FT4 HRM... Chest Strap Question
Hi Everyone! I am getting ready to purchase the FT4 HRM watch. My question is... if I am buying this for the feature of seeing how many calories I burn during my work outs... do I really NEED the chest strap?

Inputting Calories Burned off Heart Monitor... HELP!!!!
Hey everyone... Do any of you use a heart rate monitor to track how many calories you burn during your work outs? If so, how the doodle do you log those numbers onto MFP?
