I want to buy one. Pls share.

Yay that is why I thought it would be better to get a HRM. I'm not really trusting the calories burned with MFP. I have to be as accurate as possible. I don't want to be over on my calories. I was also looking at the Fitbit. A lot of great reviews for that one as well as the polar.

So I bought a Fitbit Zip and needless to say its going back to the store. I'm going with the polar. FB was saying I burned over a 1000 calories without me doing anything. Ugh.

I think we do during the course of any normal day, don't we? I'm not sure how fitbit works. I don't count my total burner though, only actual exercise or physical labor. This weekend I want to clean out the van and I totally plan on slapping on my polar.

I burned 1500 calories the weekend before surgery mowing, trimming, and edging my lawn!

Wow! Imagine how hard our poor bodies were working to keep us moving then. "/

I'm a proud owner of a polar ft4. Went during lunch and changed it. So excited. Thank you all.

Ps it was reflecting those calories burned as soon as I put the battery in without me doing anything. Lol

Yay!! Hope you love it!!

I shall report tomorrow. Any tips are greatly appreciated.

Um. Sweat lots? Hehe

You might not need the band as tight as I thought I did at first. It's loosened and it still works great.

Not much to say, just get your workout on!!!

Thanks Amy. Will do

How come my polar doesn't send the info to MFP. I linked them. Also do you feel the calories burned are pretty accurate?

I feel it's very accurate. I wouldn't recommend it if I didn't. . When I was logging a certain work out into MyFitnessPal it said 107. When I got my heart rate monitor I did the same work out and it said 105. I do believe it works perfectly. I mostly wanted it for things like walks, C25K, and strength training. Also manual labor. I love it.

I didn't know any of them synched to mfp. I wrote above that I just add my calories burned, activity type and minutes manually on the mfp phone app.

I'm actually wearing mine all day long just to see how much I burn with daily activities. Crazy.
