I just don't want to know!
I've decidedthat I prefer my fitbit flex. I can change the wriststrap to match my oufit but the only downside is I have already have 8 and I need at least another 20 different wriststraps. Some of them are so pretty.
That's the one thing I miss about the Flex was changing the band whenever you want.
I think it was @Glinda1971 that said there were more bands on Amazon that had different patterns.
I know I have the purple and I don't even like purple. I would love to be able to change bands!
PURPLE IS MY FAVORITE COLOR
ME TOO!
Yay lots of purple lovers here! It's Kelly's favorite too! And just read @shibaears loves it too!0 -
It's so cold in this office that I want to go get in the car where the sun has been shining in and making it unbearably hot. Can't wait until the end of the day.

Wha? How would random strangers on the internet know?
I have no clue. They usually have some convoluted story about when their last cycle was, and when they had unprotected sex - or sometimes, they haven't even had sex, but maybe they fooled around in other ways and there is a 1% chance that something got near there, and they give vague symptoms like "back ache" and add in lots of exclamation points. It's pretty ridiculous. Some of them are teenagers, and I give them a sort of pass (meaning I'm not mean when I tell them to see a doctor), but grown women are doing this. It makes me fear for their future children.0 -

I hate that. My old office was always freezing. I actually brought a blanket to work and put it on my legs, it was that bad.0 -

I'm so sorry. Hugs to you. It must be horribly tough to lose a parent, and even tougher to explain it to your children who have lost a grandparent.
and thank you too. My daughter was 21 mos old and it was 6 months before she stopped asking when Nana was coming back.

first date #24
decided this was just another let's chill and say hi type thing.
which really means i'm in yoga pants and a t-shirt and have no intentions of trying to pretty myself up. deal.
this is John #4, and not in that dirty prostitution type sense, literally, the fourth dude named John i've met thus far. quite the common name.
so anyway! had talked to the dude a bit ago, kinda dropped off, then popped up again.
chatting with him on sunday, he asked if i wanted to hang out in person. sure!
so we're just havin some chit chats and talk of experiences with which ever dating site we met through is always a topic of conversation. so he asks me if i've met a lot of dudes, which i tend to be a lil vague about ('cause it's none of dudes business, but i'm also curious about what his experience is so i don't totally shut it down. hehe). i usually go with, yeah i've met a few random guys here and there, nothing amazing, how about you? he says that on the site he found me, i'm the first girl he's met in person, but then adds, well it's also not the main site he uses. ok, what site is the main one you use?
Tinder. eek! i mention my pure terror of anything involving tinder, he asks why and i say how, at least in this area, it seems just to be a way to hookup with ppl and it's seems quite judgey and that's just not my scene. and he says, oh yeah, it totally is! now my lil brain is just running a muck and i just have to ask; so have you hooked up with a lot of chicks through there? oh yeah! (eek!) huh, that's interesting, a lot? 25-30. holy crap!
ooooooooooh, so you're just looking for hook-ups? his reply? well not specifically, but that's just what guys do. he then goes on to explain that you know, guys just have as much sex as they can, it's what they do, it's the norm. it's at this point that i start to look around my kitchen wondering if somehow secretly lil cameras have been stashed about, because this MUST be some type of joke. mind you this dude is a chiropractor, in theory, an adult professional! ha! and he's decent looking, but nothing amazing, and yet still manages to be a total man-*kitten*. heh.
and of course i make the mistake of letting the dude kiss me. kissing is fine, kissing is fun, but then he bites my neck so hard i now have a stinkin BRUISE, like i'm a dumb high school kid. ugh. UGH! i'm grateful the temps here have dropped a bit, so my turtleneck seems normal.
smh
next pls.....
WHAT! You know that is just a get out clause for when he cheats on someone. When, because obviously he will. Either that or he has some sort of complex. Like a teeny weeny. 25-30 girls, what a joke.
I'd tend to lean toward a teeny weeny. That's why he's had so many different girls...no one will give him a second look after the first time!!!
I've never ventured into the Tinder world. I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I did meet my current boyfriend on OKCupid and we've been together about a year and a half so there is hope of meeting someone worth having a relationship with. Dating sucks. It's the one reason I should have just stayed married....but then I remember what being married to my ex was like.
hahahaha! maybe!
i met my ex on okcupid, not exactly a selling point as he's now an ex, but we were together for five years. not too shabby i spose 0 -

I'd probably do the same. So unfair!!

I miss my mom too and had/still have a tough time explaining to my son (almost 4 now) the whole thing. He just knows that "she's in heaven with the angels" now.0 -

I loved Yahoo Answers, I was on there all the time several years ago. At first people were genuinely trying to help, then the trolls got on there and the only answers would be "google it" or they'd bash the people. That's when it stopped being fun.0 -
They sell some cover bands on Etsy as well. I'm thinking of asking for one since my birthday is coming up in December. I live the purple ChargeHR, but I need something for formal events, lol.kellyjellybellyjelly wrote: »pofoster21 wrote: »kellyjellybellyjelly wrote: »I wanted a fitbit charge with the HR monitor but then a colleague told me that his wife had complained when he checked his heart rate when he, er, was *in bed*.

I've decidedthat I prefer my fitbit flex. I can change the wriststrap to match my oufit but the only downside is I have already have 8 and I need at least another 20 different wriststraps. Some of them are so pretty.

I like purple, but blue/teal is my favorite color.
The Tory Burch bands for some of the Fitbit products are cute, but not for the money they're charging.
I definitely prefer the color and design of what I have now to the burgundy Fitbit One!

So as not to tie up the board for the rest of today, thanks to all of you for your sympathy. I may let myself wallow in pity for the rest of today, but someone needs to tell me to snap out of it tomorrow, please.0

Wallow today - it's allowed. Grief doesn't ever go away, it just sort of abates for awhile to return later. Hugs to you!! Thinking of you today. Grief bacon is okay for a day or two, though, but getting back on track returns to you the control that grief can steal away. More hugs!0 -

I'm seriously contemplating calling the office and asking her to try something else. On top of that, I now have to avoid artificial colors/sweeteners/etc for my ADD, and also start a low carb diet for my weight. I've been rebelling all week, but I guess I should get started on this.
I'm so mean though, I told hubs that if I was doing this, so was everyone else. It's far too expensive to buy 2 different kinds of food on our budget!
I started a low-carb diet in August (when we got back from Sturgis since I knew I'd have a hard time with it on vacation) and have lost about 15 pounds since being on it. I wasn't told by my doctor to go on it, I just knew from past experience that it's what has worked for me. When I first signed up for MFP in January, I was trying to just watch my calories but found I was snacking CONSTANTLY and was ALWAYS hungry!! I'm definitely more satisfied and stay full longer while eating low-carb. I'm not sure if you are a member of the Low-carb group or not, or if you have time to keep up with another group, but here is the link. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/394-low-carber-daily-forum-the-lcd-group People are generally very knowledgable and non-judgmental, just like our little group here. I try to stay under 30 grams of carbs of day, so like second phase of Atkins. That's where I'm losing weight. I am tracking on here as well. I hadn't been doing that and during that time I didn't lose any weight.
Friend me if you'd like to.
Good luck to you!0 -

Saving up for that currently. Wish I could join the Fitbit crew, but I don't like the comparable Fitbit version (Charge HR) as much as I like the Garmin. heh

I have the Tomtom Multisport. It also has the HRM in the wrist. I needed it and didn't want to wait for the new Garmin to come out. It gives me all the info I need, was cheaper, and I can download the data from the watch through an iPhone app. It automatically loads into Map My Fitness.
This is the first non-Garmin tracker I've had since my 305 (RIP).0 -

My husband bought it for me two Christmases ago. And even though it was past its 365 day warranty, they are sending me another one!!! I thought for sure I was going to have to buy another. I'm freakin' pleased as punch right now!
They really have great customer service.....they are currently sending me a new band for my flex because my split...again....second time!
Another company that has great customer service is Apple. Last year my iPad was almost out of the one year warranty (I think I had a week left), & I started to experience weird glitches with the screen & apps. Apple said that if I sent in my iPad they would try to fix & refurbish my old one, & if they couldn't get it fixed they'd send me a brand new one. They couldn't fix the glitches, & sent me a brand new one a few days later.
I agree with Apple having great customer service. I once bought a used mac book and accidentally sat something on it and it crushed the screen. I sent it back to Apple. They fixed it and shipped it back through DSL and it turned up missing. I called them and although they could have told me they had proof they sent it back and it wasn't their problem, they sent me a new mac book, no questions asked (even waited a week so that I could get the newer model) and it didn't cost a dime. I am now a die hard Apple fan because their customer service is the best.
And on a side note, turns out an employee from DSL stole my computer because someone tried to log into my .mac account a day later. Coincidence....I think not!!!!!! And now I glare at their trucks every time I see one.
Nice! Did they catch who took your old one?0
