Hey, Vancouver area people, hey

What do you eat while out?
Help a girl out I'm out often for a full day running errands, bopping around town. I have breakfast before I leave the house... Few hours go by and I'm hungry. What do you eat when you are out & about? And how would your track if it isn't a chain restaurant? This is what always stumps me. I'm not driving, so I'm walking…

Anyone gone premium?
I'm curious about it! Wondering if it has been beneficial or not...

Really need to decide on a step tracking device... ( sorry for a repeat thread )!
What do you use? What have you used? Price point, pros/cons? I want it to count steps, stairs, have a watch but it's not necessary to have things for my phone. If it's water resistance / proof that's a bonus. If it tracks laps that's an extra extra bonus. Thank you! Ps - what did you have for breakfast today?

What does your work out schedule look like?
Just curious if all of you are gym-goers for your main source of physical activity or not. Right now I'm slowly getting in to running, and going to try and pick up recreational tennis. I've considered picking up pole dancing as well, but haven't committed yet. At the moment my goal is to work out 2-3 times a week, which…

Meatless Mondays!
I'm no where close to being a vegetarian, but I do lean towards the vegetarian 'diet' when trying to eat healthy... not sure why exactly. I often like to partake in Meatless Mondays. What are some of your favourite vegetarian recipes? Simple or complex I want to hear about it! If there are good recipes for veggie burgers…

Water weigh/weight gain/how often do you weigh yourself?
I'm sure most of us have done this... eat good, lose weight, then have something higher sodium and the weight goes up. While I expect this the water retention seems to linger for a while, even up to a week but then will finally drop, this isn't so great for my weigh in days. How can I get water retention to go down quicker…

Crazy? Not counting fruit and/or vegetables
Right now I'm counting nearly everything. However there was a time when I didn't count vegetables or fruit. I wasn't concerned of the vitamins and minerals, only the calories. I lost weight. I know a few other plans use this tactic where fruit and vegetables are unlimited and don't need to be counted even though they both…

Heard of classpass? ( Based in the USA and Toronto/Vancouver Canada )
Essentially it's a membership where you can go to different studios "unlimited". The catch is that you can only go to each studio 3 times within your membership cycle. In Vancouver there are quite a few signed up studios most of them being cardio based and yoga. My question is has anyone tried this or something similar?…

Planner or track as you go?
I track as I go through out my day. Seems more realistic. But today I decided to do a bit of both. What has seemed to work best for you?

My worst habbit is STARBUCKS/drinking my calories... what's yours? LETS HELP EACHOTHER
I'm being pretty good with my other habbits that are affecting my weightloss/health goals, but starbucks and other sugary-calorie dense drinks are holding me back. I've been trying to at least stick to me non-fat, half sweet, vanilla latte, but even that is probably calories I don't need to consume. But I love my bucks. I…

Wanting my friends to be more active with me
On top of my work outs I'm trying to get my friends to do more fun active things with me. I often find a lot of our hang outs revolve around food... coffee, going out to eat etc I want them to at least TRY to go on hikes, or swimming, beach volleyball come summer weather etc! I'd love to explore more trails around my area.…

Go out for dinner & now it's time to track
How do you go about tracking food after eating at a restaurant? A lot of chains will have nutritional information on their website, but independent restaurants often don't. I went to a vegetarian place tonight and had a burger that was a portabello mushroom, and fries. I generally just try to vaguely guess because I don't…

Fitness trends in your area
In Vancouver a lot of fitness/health trends have kicked off. Some of the main ones are juice bars, spinning gyms, and even the fact that there are sooo many yoga studios And another one that I just leaped into is the bulk loose tea stores. I'm curious what is popular in your neck of the woods?

Fitbit & MyFtinessPal not syncing.
I finally synced my fitbit with myfitnesspal and the two worked for the first day perfectly. Now they aren't working. Quite frustrating. I have turned my Bluetooth on and off, took syncing off and on, turned my phone off, logged off myfitnesspal, logged off fitbit and logged back in. Nothing seems to be working. Any reason…
