  • Okay, maybe I'll try to link Apple Health to MFP, again and see how it works. Thanks! I do want my exercise calories, though...it's sort of why I have this device! :D Also, I'm in maintenance now, so I'm not trying to lose...what I'm trying to do is figure out where I truly am going to be able to maintain. And I want to…
  • I am well, thank you. I'm not sure I understand this response. How shall I be careful? And are you saying I should link MFP and Apple Health because those don't communicate well at all; my apologies if I didn't make that part clear in my initial post. Do you have success with those two linked? I haven't talked to a single…
  • I like 21 Day Fix workouts a lot. I have never done the program as it's written, though. I use the weight workouts only and run on alternate days. I also have 21 DF Extreme, but I have only tried one of the workouts from that program. I think I'll like it, too, though! I also love Chalean Extreme. I have Piyo...meh...can't…
  • Thanks, heybales! That is helpful information. I had heard that about weight training. Like you said, though, I'm only doing it 3 times per week, so it's probably not making that big a difference. I'm really just generally concerned about the calories fitbit gives me...BUT I really need to be very committed to trusting the…
  • Thank you! I thought about changing my level to sedentary. I don't really think that should matter since the overall number of calories shouldn't change. Basically I feel like lightly active is a good description of my level and I shouldn't be getting many extra calories, if any, on days with only 5,000-6,000 steps. I…
  • I'm probably not one of the experienced ones. LOL. But I am going to aim for 40/30/30 all the time. I feel like I do the best with that balance. I do not freak out if I am slightly off. I really aim for the 40 for carbs and if the protein and fat are a little off, that's okay. If I have a day of 45-50 carbs, I don't freak…
  • Yes, I'm considering that as well. It really is a good deal, especially compared with just purchasing a single program. And, no wait-time on getting started!
  • Thank you! I do prefer shorter workouts...I really don't think I'd stick with the original P90X program simply because it's longer. Might be pathetic, but at least I'm honest! (-:
  • That is another option I was considering, too! I've done 21DF before and I really like it. I also have Extreme, but haven't tried it. I could start with 21DF and then move to Extreme. I'll probably do 3 workouts and 2-3 runs per week. I am interested in P90X3, but I don't have that program and the others I do...I feel like…
  • Thank you! I do think I would enjoy this program a lot (just based on the little bit I did in the past). My concern is that it might not be the best choice for my weight loss goals. Like, maybe I should do another program before CLX? But then, I've heard of some being very successful losing weight with CLX. I don't know!…
  • Thanks so much! I don't know why, but I hadn't considered P90X. I would probably go for the P90X3 due to time constraints. Is that a good program for beginners for strength? I don't mind pushing myself because I want results, but I do not want to feel like I can't do it, either. I have heard that Tony is great!!
  • Why even get a fitbit if you aren't going to use the information? Just a thought! Even if you choose not to eat all of them back, it's good to see what you've done. And if you don't trust fitbit, then why use one?
  • Might be unlikely that you'd need it, but if you did, you'd be pretty darn glad you had it! I'm with you, OP...I always have my phone for safety reasons. I have a Samsung Galaxy s7 Edge and it fits in my flipbelt and my spibelt.
  • I have the Blaze and I love it! However, the main reason I upgraded was so that I could change bands. Now that you can do that with the new charge hr 2, if I were in the market right now, I would maybe opt for that since it has all the main features of the blaze and it's cheaper. I have gotten used to my big color screen,…
  • I have the blaze...it seems like the charge hr 2 has all the Blaze features in a different design. It almost feels like they are getting too many different products out, but I guess it makes sense if they are going stop producing the original flex and charge hr. I still don't get why we can get a fully functional tracker…
  • Thanks, Azercord! Do you find the screen hard to read outside at all or is it okay? I haven't considered using mapmyrun with it...what is the advantage of adding mapmyrun with Blaze, if you don't mind my asking?
  • Thank you! I do like the Charge HR, but for running, I really prefer something with a display, at least of my mileage, on my wrist.
  • I have it and I love it!! It is so lightweight compared to my old 205 model I had been using!
  • Thanks, everyone! I would love to just put on the fitbit in the morning and then just simply let it do it's thing all day long...and I might just do that, I don't know. I am realizing that just because it adds some steps doesn't mean it's adding a ton of calories burned, which is good. I have also noticed that my fitbit…
  • I started this morning! It's my first time doing Turbo Fire, so I'd love the support.
