What is a good HRM.



Recommended Posts

I want to buy one. Pls share.

I highly recommend the PolarUSA brand. The particular one I have is the Wearlink Bluebooth that talks to the DigiFit app on my Android smartphone. The DigiFit app talks to myfitnesspal so I don't have to enter my workouts into it manually.

Heart rate monitor. It helps tracked heart rate and calories burned.

Thanks Don. Will look into that. :)

I love my polar ft60!!! Really though, any polar brand that tells calories burned would have pleased me.

I think I may be going with them. I'm not really in a position to spend so much but do want something that can be linked to MFP.

I just enter my info manually into mfp. It's quick and easy. I wasn't in a position to spend that much either, but it was well worth it and its one of my favorite thigs. It actually motivates me to go harder and push myself.

I use the scosche rhythm I like it because you where it around your forearm it links to an iphone and works with the digifit app. http://www.scosche.com/rhythm

I have an older polar ft4 with the chest strap. The HRM is a great motivator when working out because you really push yourself. Don't trust those exercise totals on MFP it's total bs. I'm sorry but you don't burn 400 calories doing 30 minutes of gardening.

I have the Wearlink + on the far left. There's an iPhone version two to the right.

Something to keep in mind. Most Polar heart rate monitors talk to gym equipment like treadmills, ellipticals, stairmasters, etc I believe Amy's does but mine doesn't.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
