  • So I got mine 2 weeks ago and it needed to update to the latest software. Ok fine- my only issues were it was not live reporting HR to my watch faces, and wouldn't actually record swimming. Like, I'd start it and it would count the time, but zero strokes, zero anything. I wasn't sure the two were related until I tried…
  • I just got my vivoactive hr a few weeks ago- didn't really care about having touch or no touch frankly, but I see its use now that I have it. It makes it far faster to navigate through different widgets and look at post-run analysis. Didn't go with the fenix because of the price-I do like with the vivoactive you can…
  • It's one of those diets that can really shock your body. I'm normally an all or nothing sort of person, so when I went keto I went full 100% keto on day one. I lost nearly 7 pounds in one week and felt like I was dying- I felt really ill, not well. I truly believe for some people, this is one diet that sees a big advantage…
  • Its sort of embarrassing but I actually prefer farm raised salmon. All the wild-caught stuff I've ever had was so INCREDIBLY fishy my house stank for days. The farm raised stuff I found to actually be MORE fatty- and closer to what I classically think of as salmon. Big fat flaky layers after cooking as opposed to intensely…
  • Paying attention to starchy foods- they pack a lot of caloric punch. I try to stay away from bread, potatoes, pasta, and rice. Not exclusively, but man does it change my lunches. If your mindset isn't 'dieting' but simply trying to avoid starchy carbs being the center of your meal, you really cut calories quick. For…
  • Pepper steak with onion. If I order the steamed chicken off the diet menu the consistency is really weird and rubbery. Pepper steak with onion still has great flavor and is just as calorie-effective as the diet menu. Protein, iron, and deliciousness.
  • Heh, just treat it like you'd treat a marathon. Never trust a fart. :)
  • Dairy makes my skin break out so I had to find an alternative. I use Melt now- it's a non dairy substitute that tastes, spreads, and sautees like real butter. Has a lot of flavor- can bake with it too- it's pretty much the closest I've found to real butter that isn't real butter.
  • 2 egg veggie omelette, with onions peppers tomatoes and mushrooms but NO cheese. A little hot sauce mixed in with some ketchup- under 200 calories and really satisfies until lunch!
  • I would say to avoid the obvious pitfalls of the vegan diet- which is, pre-processed vegan food. For instance, french fries, potato chips, and Oreos are all vegan... but not great for anyone's diet! I discovered I liked grilled firm tofu with spicy-peanut sauce, and that once you made the decision to be a vegan, it was…
  • Hey there- looking for more friends to keep me honest, keep me motivated, and keep me tracking! Looking to lose about 20lb, doing about 1500cal/day, 6 small workouts a week. Feel free to add me!
  • Look up recipes to 'Shakshuka'. It's a tomato and egg dish- amazing. As spicy as you want it- gluten free, dairy-free, low GI, low sugar.
