For the past few weeks, I’ve been playing with the Fitbit.\u00a0 So far, I like it.\u00a0 It’s clear that on work days, I do not move enough, so it has inspired me to start going for 30 minute walks at lunch time (don’t worry, I still eat my lunch, just while working, which… isn’t ideal, but better than nothing).<\/p>\n
One thing that I like with the Fitbit that frustrated me about the Weight Watchers ActiveLink is that I can’t accurately check where I am on the ActiveLink throughout the day.\u00a0 The Fitbit gives me clear readouts and I can sync it to my phone, which I love.\u00a0 Of course, the ActiveLink has other features that I wish the Fitbit had (like the ability to wear it swimming), so it’s really what works best for you.<\/p>\n
But the point of this post isn’t to talk about the Fitbit.\u00a0 Instead, I wanted to talk about the fact that I’m trying a different approach to weight-loss.\u00a0 I’m going back to careful calorie counting.\u00a0 But this time, I’m doing it on the Fitbit website, where I can see an estimate of my calories burned versus the calories I take in.\u00a0 I know that none of these calculators are perfect, but I feel like at least the Fitbit is measuring my movement, which has to count for something.<\/p>\n
It will be interesting to see where my eating goes awry.\u00a0 Because clearly something is going wrong.\u00a0 I’m going to try this out for a while and see what happens.\u00a0 If nothing else, maybe I’ll end up with a more balanced diet.\u00a0 Even though the popcorn and wine dinner works for Olivia Pope, it’s probably not going to work for me.<\/p>\n
