Need New Ideas
I've been gone for a while and have recently returned to MFP. I came back because I signed my husband up to help with his diabetes and he wanted me to "diet" with him. Most of the reasons I had for joining in the first place are not really a factor now and I am looking for new motivation to loose weight. I am NOT…

This is going to be really hard for me. Any suggestions to help would be greatly appreciated.

Strength training
Is there any benefit to logging your strength training exercises on this site other than to keep track of them. I mean they don't add to your calories, so if I track them on another site do I have to repeat them here?:indifferent:

Campbells
My dad used to work for a company that was bought out by general foods, or visa versa, anyway he found out that they have like five different recipies for Miricle Whip depending on what part of the country it is sold.

HRM and calories
How does a HRM calculate your calories burned? I would like to get one but what would be the best way to go. The website I was looking at didn't say anything about caloriie monitoring. If I get one that just tells the HR can I figure the calories myself?

Moderation - help

The first week I was on MFP I was on the site constantly, logging everything, reading posts, answering posts. It really helped me stay on track, but unfortunatly I got way behind on my homework.
