That was one of the dietitians here at work, but she's the one who tested my resting metabolic rate and estimated my daily calorie burn from that. According to the BodyBugg, she was WAY off.
And yep, the thing they wear on The Biggest Loser. It measures your calorie burn based on a bunch of different criteria, and is supposed to be over 90 percent accurate (except in a few cases of people with thyroid problems). I also wear a heart rate monitor, but only when I'm working out. And mostly just because my HR gets so darn high, I like to keep track.
Karli, I think the working out is really the key for me. As long as I stick with the workouts, I seem to do better on food and everything else. These days, whether it's because of the BB or the higher calorie intake or the energy chews I'm now addicted to, I seem to be doing really well with my workouts, which makes me want to do better with food, too.
