Yoo fitness tracker
has anyone ever tried one of the yoo fitness trackers? I was at Walgreens today and saw the yoo 2 trackers on sale for $25 from $50. I feel like I would rather get a watch style tracker but I also don't want to spend a ton. If I wait a few weeks I would have around $75 to spend on one. Do you feel like having a actual…

Not gaining, not losing
I've lost around 7.5 pounds in 38 days by eating at a calorie deficit and light exercise (walking, body weight exercise, and exercise bike). I still have about 20 pounds to lose. For the first 25-30 days I was losing consistently but I seem to be stuck at 142 for about a week and a half now. I have my settings at 1lb/week…

Hips/love handles
ive lost around 7.5 pounds in the past 30 days and definitely notice a difference in all areas of my body but I haven't noticed any change in my hips/love handle area. I'm at 142 right now but even when I was at 115, I still had very large love handles. I was in a 0-3 size for pants but always looked bigger still because…

Vibrating weightloss machine
how are these machines supposed to work? I saw an old one from the 50s/60s at a thrift store today and looked them up when I got home and found out that they still make them! Have you ever tried one? I was tempted to buy it just because I wanted to try it just for fun and it was only $15

Cantaloupe
is it a fruit or a vegetable? I always thought it was a fruit but I was looking at seeds today and it was in the vegetable section.

Activity level
at what point would you update your activity level from sedentary? I only average maybe 5000 steps a day and a few days a week I do squats (body weight) just 10 here and there throughout the day totaling around 60. I just got an exercise bike and plan to do at least an hour per day but two hours if I can fit it in (30…

Balancing "nutrients"
under the section "nutrients" where all of the fats,carbs,sugar,protein,ect are.. What would you say is more and less important to watch closely. I find that it's hard to balance everything so you have the right amount of calories and keeping everything else close to the suggested amounts. I know it's okay to go over on…

Mowing the lawn
i see that there is an option to add mowing the lawn as exercise but since my phone automatically adds the steps, I would be adding more calories than I actually burned but I don't want to just not add it either since I have a very large yard with hills and I can definitely feel it lol would it be more accurate if I just…

Peddle machine?
im not really sure what it's actually called but I'm talking about those things that just go on the floor and have bike peddles. I'm wondering how effective they would really be?

Fitness trackers
I asked in a different section earlier about the yoo 2 fitness tracker because I found it for 50% off because I didn't expect to be able to buy something more expensive for a few weeks but I sold my spare vehicle tonight!! So I'm wondering what fitness trackers people use and like. Do you have a preference toward a watch…

Salads with cabbage
after spending years and years trying to eat lettuce but hating it, I finally gave raw cabbage a try and I actually like it. Since I've never eaten a salad I was hoping to get some ideas for different things I can add to it! What are you favorite things to put on your salad?

Mix drink ideas
i used to drink captain Morgan with either cherry coke or Mountain Dew but I like to avoid drinking a ton of calories now. I hate the taste of diet soda but have no idea what might be a lower calorie option to mix with captain morgan. Any ideas!?

Seasoning packets and logging
i messed up for logging lunch today. I wanted this broccoli rice stuff from a box but I wanted to use whole grain brown rice instead of the rice in the box so I just took the seasoning packet out. I can log the rice, chicken, and vegetables I used in it but I have no idea what to do about the seasoning packet.

I ate a whole pizza!
And I don't feel like I've ruined my whole day. It was only a tiny personal pizza but it was a new quesadilla "flavor" pizza and I just had to try it. I still have 400 some calories left and I've already had dinner. I was able to skip cheese and only use one piece of bread for an egg sandwhich this morning which is a huge…

Walking/running and wildlife
Spring might eventually be coming where I live, we got snow today but it looks like it should warm up next week! I have a treadmill but I feel extremely bored and have a hard time staying on it for any significant amount of time but I'm lucky enough to live on nearly 100 acres of private land with a trail that's about a…

Picky eater who hates cooking
Is it possible to lose weight when you hate most vegetables and can't handle eating a lot of fruit and also happen to hate cooking which means loving sandwiches? That's probably a crazy question but really I only like a few vegetables like green beans, peas, corn, and a few others. I hate lettuce, I keep attempting to eat…

Ankle sprain and exercise
I sprained my ankle pretty badly about a week and a half ago.. Right after I started working out again of course!! It happened on my treadmill when I wasn't even working out lol the first few days I could barely walk on it but since then I've tried taking short walks but even going to the grocery store for a half hour will…
