I stalled and fluctuated up and down for a good few weeks. then it would drop a lb then fluctuate up and then back to that new weight... and on and on it went like that. I was thinking I'd never get below 200. I do notice that on days…
  • I got some looks when went to an Italian Restaurant with a bunch of co workers...Our annual winter gathering.

  • I have a fitbit...but am told that the Basis has the technology to track your heartrate and steps and intensity of the workout... it's just a big bulky thing right now..but wearable tech is the new big thing... so am expecting it to improve. But if you don't mind the bigness of it... might be a good option.
