Still love this post.

I am back to trying for accuracy, I am struggling with the new layout.

Go into Garmin Connect and join the Garmin Group: "My Fitness Pal Buds"

I really wanted one, to try out their Fitbit sleep tracking. Almost every tracker does a terrible job at sleep tracking and Fitbit has a reputation for being the least bad. I didn't care about anything else. I bid, and bid, and bid, and bid, and finally I got an "Inspire 2" used on ebay for $20, it is their latest and…

I am a long time Garmin/MFP user. It all works, and I also love Garmin/Spotify. Six months ago I bought a fitbit (It has had superior sleep tracking, and I was curious) Fitbit (great on sleep tracking) is okay. It can work with a motivated person. When you want to be really careful and want specific details and data,…

Either I'm wrong, or it is impossible. I have had MFP ticker problems years ago, I've ignored it. I just got back on the MFP motivation train, and tickers still aren't working for me. Anyone? (all of the help/faq that I've read don't address this very much.)

Yup. You won the 'great hair competition.' Great accomplishment, I'll bet you are feeling like a million bucks. You earned that feeling one MFP log in at a time. Keep it up!

This is the thing on TV where you stand in front and have trainers and programs? How much?

This is a saying single guys with VWs say a lot. (having formerly been a single guy with a VW bus)

I think of MFP as a tool. It is a little rigid. But giving in a little bit to it's quirks, really worked well for me to gain some knowledge and insights about myself, that I can't imagine I would have otherwise learned. It can be very enlightening to use MFP. At the end of the day I am still me, but this is a solid and…

* grocery store single serve salad kits * Withings wifi scale * Garmin watch and the Garmin Connect community * a nearby lake I get to walk around * regularly talk about my intentions to be healthier, without self-consciousness

I have a new Withings wi-fi scale arriving today. It is a bit audacious, however, I think I am about 5 lbs. above where I ended 2020. If I get on track it is possible I could end this annus horribilis with a net zero.

Thanks, have a great Tuesday too.

Great work.

Balance is important to keep. Dropping and busting a hip is bad. I encourage you to find the most senior advanced well-trained teacher you can find, and take their absolute most basic fundamental class. A great teacher who has worked with a student five or ten times can really make a great yoga practice. The good…

@123bean It is encouraged, I think you have come to the right place, welcome. Your posts and everyone else's give hope, and inspiration, and encouragement, and consolation. That's what I think the point is. So, I'm glad you came. I hope to post this next week...it has been a bear lately.

Get well soon. The foot is tough, because you have to use it to move around. Wishing you the best.

I didn't go, but I had a Californian High School reunion this last weekend too. Hope you had fun.

The way is different if you are on a phone app or on a web browser. I'm sitting on a web browser right now so I'll describe that: On your web browser go to https://connect.garmin.com/signin/ Type in your user name and password and log in. Once you are logged in (for me) up at the very top right is a circle with my little…

Wow. You have been through a lot. I have no magic bullet, or deep insight. All I suggest is log into MFP everyday. Post everyday. Keep this fitness change a living breathing everyday thing. I got a running stress fracture in March 2020 and gained 70 lbs not running. I want to run too. Hope we'll be hear talking about our…

As the subject says "an unpopular opinion" Bleh!

That's a great goal. A little aggressive, but doable.

More trying.

It is a consciousness raising exercise to log accurately. How do I not be perfect with what I eat, have compassion for my flubs, and make healthy progress? That seems why I should care about this accuracy.

My classes talk about the clarity of the mind. A regular practice and I'll have less stress, anxiety, worry, etc. Sure yoga-butt is good, but being easier on myself and my surroundings sounds great.

I unlinked the scale app from MFP, then reconnected and resync'd.
