TrendWeight Wackiness
Anyone else find that TrendWeight's projection of how fast you're losing weight and how many calories you should add/cut to meet your goal is, well, wacky. My "loss in the last month" number is consistently between 3.1 and 3.3 pounds these days - so, pretty much 0.75 pounds/week. But, every day, I get a totally different…

The Importance of Sleep
The night before last, we were traveling and stayed in a hotel with our two young children. The baby refused to sleep by himself (and I didn't want him to keep the whole hotel awake with his screaming) so I wound up spending the entire night cuddling him while he slept on me. I got basically no sleep. The next day, I was…

All My Pokemon CP Changed?!
Just opened my "look at all your Pokemon" screen (sorted by CP) and all of a sudden they're in a totally different order. All of my Arcanines have been "demoted", my Golem is suddenly at 2300 instead of 1900 and my Nidoking and Nidoqueen that used to be within 1 CP are 50 CP apart. I Googled and didn't see any announcement…

Explosion of Stuff
All of a sudden, I'm getting twice as much stuff as usual from PokeStops, and the Pokemon on campus are spawning in groups of 6-10 where there are usually 2-4. Is this some sort of special event, or are they making the game easier to attract more (and/or former) players? e.g. I usually see one or two vulpix per week.…

Pokemon Go Buddy
Just wanted to make sure everyone had heard about the feature they added in the latest update (yesterday). Go to your profile and you can pick one of your Pokemon to be your "buddy" and walk with you. For every kilometer it walks, it gets a candy of its type. So, we may yet be able to evolve our MagiKarp. Mine has already…

Exercise Type
When I go for long walks with my husband and two kids, the FitBit often "recognizes" them as "outdoor bike" activities. I don't know if this is because he's tall so I have to walk fast to keep up or if it's because my hands on the stroller mimics the activity of hands on a bicycle. Either way, I keep changing it to say…

Iced Tea
I used to have a major soda addiction. I weaned myself off slowly using diet soda then progressively more dilute Crystal Light. I've now gotten to the point where about half the liquids I drink can be water. But I still crave flavour! I tried the "water with lemon slices in it" thing, but constantly slicing lemons felt…

40 Year Old Mom of Two
Hi! I have two wonderful young boys aged nine months and two years. Unfortunately, pregnancy did not agree with my body (in a variety of respects) and I wound up regaining a lot of weight that I had worked hard to lose - plus more. I'm just a hair under 5'4 and was 190 lb when I joined a couple of weeks ago, so I have 50…
