Searching for a Good Strapless HRM
This came up in another topic, but I decided to break it out here and ask. I can't wear a HRM chest strap. I'm looking for people who are willing to share their personal experiences with ones that log HR off the wrist. A continuous feed would be best, but I see very few of those come up in my searches. Any help is…

Tweaking my settings - Opinions, please
I've been tweaking my settings a bit. I manually changed my goal calories from 1300 to 1400 (900 calorie deficit) because I felt maybe 1300 was a bit low.

Mine is below - bear in mind its heavy on…

Fortysomething Guy
Hi gang. New to MFP boards. I've had the app on my phone a while but am just starting to use it in earnest now. I've gradually picked up about 50 extra pounds since a surgery a few years ago, and I'm finally getting serious about my health and fitness again. I welcome anyone in the same or similar situation to add me for…
