Ipod, Polar, Garmin..etc. What Is The Best For Beginner Runner?

Started running about 3 months to try to loose 8 lbs. Like outdoor running/jogging. Garmin Forerunner seems fancy, but Inot sure if GPS is needed. The Timex watch is too slient, sometimes can’t hear the beep for interval training. I don’t like the HRM strape. But, I heard strapeless HRM is not accurate. Ipod is great partner, but don’t do HRM. Don’t like to carry so many things during running. Any suggestions?
