    I thought "Blue Apron and chill" was the next "Netflix and chill," but "Fitness and chill" works just as well! ;)

    I've been using BA for about a year now (typically 2-3 times/month) and absolutely love it. Not all of the recipes are outstanding, but they're all good, IMO. DM me and I'll have them send you a free box if you'd like to try them out. :)

    I'm from Los Angeles. Regarding scales, are you looking for a food scale or body scale? Also, what price range are you looking at?

    Added you =) and Caferacer, both. I'm not really on a budget person but if a cheaper one works just as well I'd go with them.

    For food, I use the Oxo 11-lb scale. It's built like a tank, is accurate, and it has a pull out display. I honestly didn't think I'd ever use the pull out display but once I started logging, I discovered it's invaluable. If you're weighing a large bowl or plate, the display can often be hard to read. The pull out display solves this issue. I've had this scale for 6-7 years and have never had any problems with it (knock wood).

    For body, I recently got a Withings Body Composition scale, which I love. It syncs easily and the readings it gives me seem consistent. The display is also big and easy to read (the opposite of what I've heard/read about the Fitbit Aria). One caveat: all smart scales use bioelectric impedance to measure body fat%, which is a very inaccurate way of measuring BF. I've turned this feature off on mine.
