Caved this morning.
I have only been going back to primal eating for the past two or three weeks, but after seeing a complete stall in weightloss I ended up caving this morning and making grits for breakfast (Bob's Red Mill Organic Polenta Grits). Then *of course* after I ate them I realized I hadn't weighed myself beforehand, decided to…

I know it's been asked ad nauseam...
I know asking, "How many calories should I be eating?" is a question asked more than a little on this forum. I also basically have a grasp on things and as of this morning am down a total of about 8 pounds...which I'm very proud of (we all start somewhere!). My question is fairly simple...I think...: I had been eating at…

Anyone use Sworkit & a HRM? Accurate?
Edit: Thank you to Joy_Joy_ for providing me with two links that cleared this all up for me. I didn't realize that HRMs aren't necessarily accurate when determining a calorie burn. You learn something new every day! Again, thank you for the information and anyone else who would like to read the posts that joy_joy_ linked…
