Basal body temperature
Hi I've been reading about basal body temperature and how it impacts your metabolism. I'd like to start tracking for weight loss purposes. Has anyone tried this? If so, what are your tips for getting started? I can't find a free app for it, so I guess I need to track the old school way.

Fitbit and activity
Hi everyone, For years I have used a fitbit zip to monitor my daily steps. A few months ago I switched to an Inspire model worn on the wrist.

Losing Weight But Scale Not Changing?
I lost 25 lbs early on, but for the last 3 weeks my scales haven't shown any weight loss. I was a bit discouraged, but I've been just sticking with it.

My biggest struggle with losing weight is not knowing how to do it.
I won’t lie. I have not been to the gym in a minute. But even when I did go, I never felt I got much accomplished. And I also fall off the wagon a lot because after weeks of tracking calories and exercising, I only seem to put weight on. And no, it isn’t muscle. Did anyone else have this issue?

Eating and rotating shifts
I work a two week rotating shift which of course means that every two weeks I have to flip my eating/sleeping schedule upside down. When I switch, I tend to only consume half of the calories I need to in a day and barely drink anything because I don't feel good. My workouts on those weekends are nonexistent because I…

Scales
My trusty and accurate scale of 15 years died recently. I got a new scale. Was looking for something on the simple side and went by the reviews. Apparently some of the new scales hold onto the memory of recent weights and won’t reset the weight when your weight changes by small amounts. I thought my new scale didn’t do…
