Questions, questions, questions??? Please help!

Hello everyone,

       I just feel like I am always running around and just can't get this blog thing going like I want to.  But I guess it is better to post some than none at all.  Anyway I am in need of some help from those of you out there who know a lot more about fitness than I do!

        I am thinking really hard about purchasing some type of a calorie/heart rate monitor watch combo.  Not really sure what to get. I have been looking at the Polar watches but not sure which one to choose. (There are bunches of them.) I have also looked at the bodybugg and fitbit. My husband has a Garmin watch that he loves but I don't think that I need to spend that much money since I don't need a GPS.  Lord knows I just don't run enough to need that.  I really just want something that will help me keep up with my calorie burn and heart rate range to know when I am burning fat.  Please any suggestions that you might have would be very much appreciated. 




Decisions, Decisions, Decisions!!! 
Thanks in advance for any advise that you might be able to give me on this.
Planning to link up with Weigh-In Wednesday this week so I will see you then!
 
Have a wonderful night,
Becky

Weigh In Wednesday for 3/5/14 (on Friday!)


Weigh In Wednesday


Weigh In for this week:
160.3 so I gained .1 pounds this week.  I guess it could be a lot worse.  I did not stick to my goals for the week as well as I would have like to.  I only worked out twice and I tried to drink more water but I have a long way to go with that goal.  I did try to watch what I ate but I seem to do well during the week and blow it on the weekend and then spend all week trying to fix what I did on the weekend. 

So my goals for this upcoming week will be....
Workout 5/6 days (maybe this is more realistic)
Watch what I eat.  (Less sugar)
Drink more water
Do not eat so much over the weekend!!!!

Does anyone have any tips on how not to eat too much on the weekend??? I am open to any and all suggestions!  Thanks in advance :)

I hope everyone has a great weekend!  See ya on next Wednesday's Weigh In Link Up!

Weigh-In Wednesday 2/26/14

Weigh In Wednesday


Weigh-In Wednesday (Late Post) 2/26/14

Well I did manage to lose those horrible pounds that I packed on last week.  My previous weight was 163.6 and my current weight is 160.2 so that is a  3.4 pound loss!  Thank goodness!  I was really starting to worry how quickly those pounds were packing on.  So I will take this loss especially when I only worked out two times that week. Hopefully I will be able to post on Wednesday of next week.

Weekly Goals for 3/2/14 to 3/8/14
  • Workout 5/7 days!
  • Drink more water!
  • Eat less sugar!
Hope everyone has a great week! Looking forward to linking back up with Weigh-In Wednesday!
