    DW is in the market for a smart watch. Any recommendations? It looks like you can spend $$ to $$$$.

    I love my Apple Watch but then I'm all in ... iPhone and MacBook Air :) (Disclosure ... also a stock holder for the past 15-20 years. It has been a great investment. LOL)

    We bought my mother an Apple Watch for her birthday this year since she wanted a watch to monitor her steps and we wanted the fall detection since her husband passed away in 2020 and she lives alone in a remote area.

    thx for the input!

    @_JeffreyD_ I had a Garmin for about five years. It syncs well with MFP including adding and subtracting calories when your steps are more or less than a usual day. My last one was coming to its end and I bit the bullet and bought the Apple watch. I love all the bells and whistles and the details I get on all my workouts, including swimming. The exercise syncs with MFP, but no credit for regular daily activity. I'm happy I made the change.

    @deepwoodslady, Donna, the calorie and macro count is from MFP. There are other recipe calorie calculators online. Also monkfruit sweetener is VERY sweet. I didn't eat any of these muffins, but my family didn't say they were too sweet. I plan on making them again for next week. If you consider making this recipe, you can wait on my opinion first.
