Handheld electronic calorie counters?

[carrie123]

I posted a question about these in a earlier post, but was thinking maybe my title seemed to vague, so I was hoping I'd get a few responses with a more direct post.

Anyways, I was curious to see if anyone's used an electronic calorie/exercise counter and if so, what did they think?

OK, if I don't get any responses, I'll take it nobody has used any of these

Take care,

Do you mean a heart rate monitor with a calorie counter? A lot of us use those. The problem with HRM's is that you can't take them for gospel. You take 5 different devices and do the exact same exercise and you'll get five different calorie counts, but it is a good guide for intensity.

No not a heartrate monitor. It's actually like an electronic journal the size of a calculator. You put in the foods you eat and exercises you do and the counter does the rest, calculating calories and nutrition information. They store up to 12 months of info. and you can connect it to your pc to download your info. including charts and graphs ect. Here is a website for one I've been looking at.
