    in Fitbit Charge HR Comment by karaokewife January 2015
  • Regarding the comfort level of the HR ... I have tiny wrists (5.5" circumference, slightly more than 2" across.) I wear the HR size small. For the most part, the HR is comfortable. It took a couple of days fiddling with the tightness of the band to both get an accurate heart rate AND not feel bruised directly under the…

  • I'm on day three with my charge HR. I've tried logging exercise on both fitbit and MFP. I've tried only fitbit. Neither are ideal. Logging in both places, FitBit with the button activation on the unit, and MFP manually with time indicator, has the entry showing up twice in my FitBit dashboard. Makes sense since it was…

  • Just for today I will not allow others to sabotage my goals. Just for today, I will ignore the box of Thin Mints in the freezer (brought home by someone else). Just for today, I will say "I choose not to eat ..." instead of "I cannot eat ..."

The pounds have a way of creeping back on if you are not vigilant. (I speak from experience.) I imagine this would be amplified if you are already hitting up McDonald's…

  • Yes, yes, yes! Buy a few things that fit ... and when you do for every article that goes in your closet, take out one that is too big. Fat clothes are a safety net. If you don't have any, and you gain some weight back, it will be much more difficult to ignore when nothing you own fits. I have been there more than once.…
    in Shrinking size - should I buy new clothes for temporary use? Comment by karaokewife July 2014
  • I should have stated that. My apologies. I work out at home. I have free weights as well as ankle / wrist weights.

  • Hi! I'm looking for fitness friends to help keep me motivated. I lost 60 pounds two years ago and have started to see it creep back. My goal is to lose ten pounds and, with support, keep it off. My diary is open to friends. Though I'm new-ish I plan to log daily.

  • I joined yesterday. I lost 60 pounds two years ago. In the last few months, I've gained back 10 of it. I'll be using the app to lose that 10 and maintain the result. Feel free to add me. :)
