I haven't found one that I can say for sure is accurate. I can use Nike + GPS and runkeeper and map my run all at the same time (poor battery on my phone) and get very different results.

I started doing Strong Lifts 5x5 2 months ago (I'm 8 months out) because I want to keep my muscle and hopefully have some tone when the fat goes away. If you don't know it, you have specific lifts you do 3x a week and you add 5lbs each time. I've progressed quite well in 2 months, being female, I suppose I'm doing pretty good. Check it out, maybe if you followed it, you can gradually add weight and get back to your 300lb max soon!
Good luck!
We have a store near us called " play it again sports" I bought a tiny but sturdy motorized treadmill from there . Try places that have some out on display for you to try out

Sorry to hear that! Just keep yourself motivated and you'll come out good. :D
I think the biggest benefit from exercising in the lower heart rate zones, especially in regards to running, is being able to do it longer and safer. At 65% max HR I can literally go for hours. At 90% I can go for minutes. You're also a lot less likely to get injured from overuse when operating slower. That's why Couch to 5K and the like are so successful. Slow build up at easy pace.

after this fall that I had on the trail it makes me nervous to go back on them when I can start running but I am going to have to since the race is trail.
