What Calorie Counting Idiosyncrasy Makes You LOL At Yourself?

What Do You Think of the New “Analyze My Day” feature?
My diary recently started showing a Beta “Analyze My Day” feature. You click it and it uses AI to make suggestions. I don’t know if this is a limited Beta, or if everyone is getting it. What do you think of it? It’s intriguing, for sure, but it’s carrying over incorrect data. I’ve prelogged today, as usual. This is what my…

iOS Users
This is very random, but I just activated iPhone mirroring on a new MacBook. It brings up my iPhone screen on my MacBook’s desktop.

Anyone Else Getting Logging Glitches?
I pre-log several days out. I sat down yesterday morning and logged for most of the upcoming week. Yesterday evening, most of the upcoming days were empty. Wiped clean. Grrrrrrrrr.

Travel “Win”
Five years in maintenance this month, excluding the period I dropped too, too low. Five years in a size 4, small or XS. Five years without having to gnaw on “its mail order, so will it fit”, because it generally does.

My doctor says I am badly dehydrated, confirmed by tests. Seems like this summer the faucet is on as soon as I put on my workout gear. I work out pretty extensively, I sweat profusely.

iOS App Users: How Are you Getting to Your Activity Feed?
Has anyone using the iOS app found a way to efficiently get to their “activity feed”? The only way I’m able to reach anyone’s activity feed - including my own - is like so: 1.) go to community board 2.) hit search in top right 3.) enter and search user name.

“Smart” Scales and Data
So this is mildly interesting. I did a body pump class with my daughter, a few hours before a flight home Tuesday afternoon. She had me get on a real fancy body scan machine at the gym. At home, I use a Renpho Bluetooth smart scale, which does a daily “scan”. Just to show you how laughable both are, here’s Tuesday morning…

Homemade Dry Sugar Free Pudding Mix
Has anyone got a recipe, or experimented making, a dry sugar free pudding mix? We make homemade ice cream with it, and sometimes make mousse with pudding mix and Greek yogurt.

What’s Your Simple Pleasure?
Brought the dog in from a rainy walk. He went mental, running up and down stairs, throwing himself on the floor, rolling over wildly, jumping on all the furniture, and barking like it was the greatest thing in the world. He does this after baths, too. So simple but gives him so much pleasure, and I enjoy watching the fool.…

Random Swimming and Bench Questions
My gym has the slipperiest bench on the planet. Any time I try to bench, I’m sliding all over the place, even with a towel. Any suggestions? I was thinking of a yoga mat towel, the kind with grippy silicon dimples but they’re six feet long, so overkill. Is there a product for this purpose? Second, due to a sprained toe,…
