Burning lots of calories in Fitbit Charge 2
Just upgraded to a Fitbit Charge 2. I’ve heard on Reddit other users complained that the steps and calories were over counted and the heart rate was off. I have a hard time believing that my grocery shopping trip and my 50 minute run/ 20 minute walk really burned nearly 2000 calories. My old Fitbit would never have given…

Fitness Tracker Recommendations
Hello All, I purchased a Fitbit Charge HR in February 2016. Since that time I have received two replacements by the company.

Which is better: Fitbit or Polar FT7?
My heart rate monitor is acting erratically (as should all $7 heart rate monitors after a while!) and I was wondering, which one is better: Polar FT7 or FitBit? Which one is easier?

How to stop self sabotage?
So after being less than 20 lbs away from my goal I have been eating horribly and have managed to pack on 15 pound. I have been going back to the gym after a 5 month hiatus but it is almost pointless because I reward myself with 5000 calorie binges.

Best vegan protein shakes anyone?
Does anyone know of a good vegan protein shake? I am currently taking Nutribiotics 70% vegan rice protein but the taste is horrible and 11g protein /tbsp of powder is just not enough. Doubling up only costs the bottle to go faster and it only has a small amount of servings to begin with.

How to track calories with Heart Rate Monitor
So I scored a free heart rate monitor with a strap. It is no Polar FT4 but it works. The only thing is that it is pretty old and does not measure calories. Does anyone know what type of formula I can use so that I can accurately measure how many calories I have burned during a bike ride using the Heart Rate Monitor?

So this afternoon when I woke up I made a smoothie with these ingredients: 3…
