Cardio? is 1 hr in morning and 1 hr at night OK?

Crawfish Omelette
I just made this for the first time... delicious, filling, and only 183 calories. 1/2 cup of Southwest egg beaters (53 calories) 28 grams (1/4 cup) of velvetta shreds (60 calories) 3 oz of crawfish tails (70 calories) If you have onions or peppers it would be a nice addition. But I just sauteed the crawfish to brown them a…

Get a Fitbit/Jawbone or what?
I have a HRM already for running, but I was curious if anyone has experience with the pedometer/sleep monitor type devices and thinks they are worth it. Amazon seems to have very mixed reviews and doesn't look like nike fuel syncs with MFP. Thanks ahead of time!

I am at a…
