Need help picking a HRM
I need a HRM that is easy to use, accurate and able to be used underwater for swimming and water aerobics. It has to be able to have a wrist and chest strap that fits a bigger girl and it also cannot be too high in price as I have a $125 limit that I have budgeted out.

I'm finally seeing a difference!
So far I have lost a little over 40 pounds and I wasn't really seeing a difference. It's harder when you are very overweight cause 40 lbs is nothing compared to a smaller person who loses 40 lbs. But today I got a few cofirmations that I am finally doing it. First of all I had to take a trip to the store cause my underwear…

Low Calorie/Fat Ranch Dressing
I am a ranch fanatic.. and have ruined quite a few healthy meals and salads with a heavy drowning of ranch-filled calories. I've tried all the low fat/light/fat free brands and they all taste gross to me. Which is why I'm so excited to have found a new way to get what I love and still have it be low on calories. I found…
