Do any of you have these at your gym? That thing is torture, but I used it the last two days for an hour and burned 760 calories each day. The eliptical I feel is a harder workout, but it says I only burn 700 calories in an hour. I don't know if the machine is lying to me...Maybe they up the calories burned to get you to use it more. I should ask the gym owner.
Isn't it all about heart rate? If my heart rate stays below 130 the whole time on the arc, wouldn't that burn fewer calories than if it goes higher on the eliptical?? I am mystified, and tired to boot.
But I've started my 5-7 of cardio anyway. We'll see if the weight starts coming off now. That is the point!
I bought gobs of SF popsicles and jello and stuff - trying to substitute a few things - get more fluids in.
Got to drop some pounds before one year mark!!

8 weeks!!! Heaven help me!
