What irks you today?

My boss set up a 10:00 am appt which is way too early for me to be nice to people and interferes with my pacing the office because the boss isn't in yet time (he usually comes in around 11:00 or so).
My backup activity tracker that still had a working battery died the other night so I'm tdeeless until the batteries I bought come tomorrow.
I'm actually thinking of buying a cheapie activity tracker with the pretty colored watch faces that are charged by usb but couldn't find a non fitbit one that showed tdee on the display and not just in the app. (I tried a miband 5 and liked it but didn't like it only showing actually exercise calories.)
It's a first world irk, but it checks out.
I have one of those ultra cheap activity trackers and it's actually pretty good, absolutely no chance of TDEE on mine though.
Ooooo what kind? I actually still have a fitbit altahr but OMG DID THAT THING OVERCOMPENSATE ON EXERCISE CALORIES!
Mine is an Amazon Chinese-export special made by the imaginitively named 'veryfitpro'
it does have a smartphone app to sync with but isn't compatible with MFP. Calories are never, ever right. What it does do well is count steps though.
I also use veryfitpro. Always wondered if my calories were accurate but now reading your comment I'm leaning towards No lol but I do like the other features. I can't be on my phone much at work so it's nice to still get my notifications through the watch.0 -

It is really good for the money, honestly I thought I was the only person in the northern hemisphere to own one of these, my ex-gf gave it to me as a Christmas stocking filler years ago. I can't with any scientific authority that the calories aren't right, but I'm 99% sure they're a bit high.1 -

Mine was a hand-me-down from my daughter. She replaced it with the really expensive one and it's been a few years now so definitely durable1 -

Every once in a while I check out activity trackers on amazon and probably came across it. I really only care about the calories and maybe the detecting movement features. And it has to detach from the band because I do a lot of walking dvds while playing on my tablet and most trackers won't pick up the non swinging of the hands
I don't keep my phone on me at all times so being able to view the all day tracking on the display is really helpful to know where I am at all times.
I have a feeling only fitbit does this tho.0 -
Argh! The batteries came and it works again but I can't get the stupid teeny tiny screws back in. I have rubberbands on each end to hold it together but it's hard to get into my ankle strap (for the dvds) and definitely won't fit into the watch band.0

Narcissistic Time Vampires
Either you are being visited (and irked) by well-dressed, self obsessed, real life vampires from the Victorian era who have mastered time travel to terrorise people in the 21st century.
Or you have an outstanding turn of phrase and have just invented the best description for a very specific group of people. "No Brian, I don't want to hear about the details of your exquisite holiday in Lausanne again, we were supposed to have left the office 20 minutes ago".1 -

Sometimes I think if I ever got a personal trainer, I would want one who uses positive reinforcement but, it's come to my attention, that the rah rah, you're doing so fantastic approach is annoying af.0

Keep it moving you lazy sack of *kitten* is worse imo.
I don’t mean to perpetuate a false dichotomy. There are plenty of very good trainers who do neither of those things.0 -

I've never had one (except I got two free sessions at the last gym I signed up with) and I think I'd prefer someone who isn't so serious - I don't enjoy exercising so I want someone to at least make me laugh about how much I hate what I'm doing lol0 -
On my commute this morning I noticed a guy accidently left his transit card on his seat. I got up, walked it to the front and said, "I think that guy out there in the hoodie accidentally left this here." "The guy in the hoodie?" "Yeah." And then he just proceeded to pull away and continue on.
Lol excuse me, wtf was that? He was right there, just open the doors again and yell out to him2 -
At the moment my raging appetite. I ate some more protein hopefully this will help.0

This is it. I would need someone with a sense of humor. The whole drill sergeant stereotype isn't for me either.
(I've never been to one but we have a few who are clients. I'm actually more the do it on your own type even tho I rarely have.) 0 -
