Is your Polar Wearlink strap giving you Grief?
Are you having 00 or the lost signal message continually from your Polar HRM - with a Wearlink strap? "This is ONLY for the Wearlink material type straps".

NSV! Resorted to swiping my 18yr old son's clothes LOL
Yes - my trousers are puckering so bad that I have pleats where there shouldn't be any.

10kg down = a few notches in the belt!
Big or small success; you be the judge but I'm smiling ear to ear. It took 4 months but I have now wittled away 10kg and gone from the last notch of my belt to the first notch on that same belt (that's 4 on the opposite side of the keeper these days). I'm now around .7kg/2lb off the weight I was when I left the Air Force…

Whoo haa - Challenging is…

Should I include the weekday train/work walk - votes/opinion
I have set my daily activity to sedentary - which being a IT Pro / Keyboard jockey it pretty much is. But I do a train to work walk each weekday which I'm not sure whether to include in exercise. It's about 12mins each way and over the last 4 weeks worked it up so that it now includes 6 flights of stairs going to and 2…
