4.09.2012 Weigh-in

Posted on April 11, 2012. Filed under: Weigh-in | Tags: , |

I had a loss of 1.0 pound. Which I’m pleased with. I had seen less the day before, but that may have been because I was feeling really dehydrated. It was a bad week for water drinking. And actually, a bad week for eating, but not because I was eating to excess, but the exact [...]

Fitbit vs. BodyMedia Fit

Posted on March 28, 2012. Filed under: Reviews | Tags: |

This is not going to be any kind of in-depth scientific study, but I will try to provide some detail and impressions that may help folks trying to decide which to buy. For calorie burn accuracy, I feel both devices are a reasonable guide to what you are burning but not a “set in stone” [...]

Interesting Fitbit walk

Posted on February 23, 2012. Filed under: Exercise | Tags: , |

Today, for the first time, I used the Fitbit to time a walk. You can start and stop the stopwatch function and then Fitbit will give you an activity record on the website for the specific activity performed during that timeframe as in the image below. I was actually blown away a little bit when [...]

2.20.2012 Weigh-in

Posted on February 20, 2012. Filed under: Weigh-in | Tags: , |

It’s Monday, rainy and cold and it even snowed for a bit this morning, though it didn’t stick. But I’m happy enough, because in spite of overeating on three days this past week, resulting in my LoseIt Android app telling me I had a surplus of over 1000 calories for the week, I still had [...]

Enter the Fitbit

Posted on February 15, 2012. Filed under: Exercise | Tags: |

On January 28, 2012 the Fitbit Ultra entered my life. I’ve known about the device for some time, and I thought about getting one before I got my BodyMedia Fit, but at the time, the BodyMedia device seemed more attractive and I felt it was likely to be more accurate as well. As for accuracy, [...]

2.13.2012 Weigh-in

Posted on February 13, 2012. Filed under: Weigh-in | Tags: , |

244.6 pounds, a one pound loss. I’m pleased with this. I wasn’t totally on the straight and narrow eating-wise, but much improved over recent weeks. I’ve cooked a little, made up salads in advance, things like that. I made an effort to be a little more active even though the weather hasn’t been nice. When [...]

Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 to the Rescue

Posted on February 13, 2012. Filed under: Life | Tags: |

I need to introduce you to the “thing”. Gadget motivation at its finest! I originally bought the “thing” on a Black Friday sale for hubby as a Christmas surprise. And then I couldn’t stand it and bought another at the sale price for myself. I’m not a hooked into social media, phone toting kind of [...]
