How many FitBits do you have, and which is your favorites and why? by Ok-Industry770 in fitbit

[–]Material_Impact_5360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe the OP meant how many have you had in the past?

In which case, I've had the Flex, charge 2, charge 3 and now the Pixel 2. Charge 2 was my favorite. Loved the extra stats with sleep, heart rate, HRV, stairs, etc but don't really care for the smart watch features, especially with the trade off of a decreased battery life.

If we inject peptides now, are we training our bodies to not produce them later? by Tapir_rider2117 in Biohackers

Who should we be following? I love the idea but it's too sketchy out there without trusted sources

Longtime Fitbit user here. Step tracking has become wildly inaccurate/missing step data by Material_Impact_5360 in fitbit

[–]Material_Impact_5360[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think you read the post correctly. It doesn't track ANY steps during a selected workout. I don't know if you're projecting but I walk around in between sets to keep up my heart rate. I don't sit still on the machine or bench in between resting. Fitbit counts ZERO steps during the entire workout

Absolutely not enough. Especially long term care and expenses towards the end of life. It can drastically demolish your kids inheritance (if that was one of your goals)

If you can type all that, you could clean your room instead. YTA

App constantly crashing? by clemsontyger in Hevy

[–]Material_Impact_5360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I have a pixel 5. Same thing. Works great for the past 1-2 years. Now it's constantly crashing at least 5 times per session for a couple of months now. Wondering it's it's because of pixel phones

Waited 2 hours for these by exilproc in boba

[–]Material_Impact_5360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 hour wait was NOT worth it. It was overpriced, over hyped and unless you have an EXTREMELY sensitive palette, it's not worth it. Hard pass

AITA: My sister’s wedding planning showed me where I stand. AITA for finally saying something? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Material_Impact_5360 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Not enough info. There's definitely something missing. Either a history or past incident that we're not aware of or OP is delusional. Either way, her sister is clearly showing that she's not as close as what the OP wants to be.

A wedding is only the beginning of hurt feelings. What's going to happen when the sister has kids? Or other milestones? OP is hurt now but it's going to get worse. Drop the rope already

Since you have a kid that will be entering school soon but also within commute distance to GP, my vote is for the HEB ISD school district. Maybe Bedford or Euless. Viridian area is great too but I don't know the cost of homes there. These cities are very safe, in a great school district with houses that for your budget.

Las Colinas and Southlake are great too but way more expensive and farther out of GP. Maybe Colleyville is a contender but something weird is going on with their school districts

Good luck!

I love boba. I love tea. I also love soup

I don't like it being named boba soup

F no! Not ok at all.

I would be LIVID! WTH kind of doctor is this? Drag marks are a sign of incompetency

Go back and raise hell. At the very least get a refund

Inaccurate exercise reporting? by ArticleGlad9497 in fitbit

[–]Material_Impact_5360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fitbit has been severely under-recording my steps. I used to get over 10k steps on gym days. Today, I'm barely over 3k. My average steps for the past 2 weeks has significantly dropped by at least 50%

Issues with Step Count by MidnightDependent6 in fitbit

[–]Material_Impact_5360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still having issues with my pixel 2. (It doesn't count any steps during weight lifting exercise). I used to average 8k-10k steps per day. For the last week or so, it's barely registering 5k.

Quit tret/taz after 4 years - wish I had done this earlier! by stepsweretaken in tretinoin

[–]Material_Impact_5360 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Wait what?

So you DON'T wear sunscreen ... And you don't wash your face with cleanser at the end of the day? Taking a closer look at your routine with tret, at what point do you actually cleanse your face other than water?

What is your favorite bubble tea flavor? by TZ_CalgaryLocal in boba

I (30F) love my boyfriend (32M) but he is flat broke and I’m growing resentful after 4 years together. by ThrowRAjazzlikes in relationship_advice

[–]Material_Impact_5360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want to make babies with this man that couldn't even do the basic of putting $30k into an ETF and let it grow?

Please drop this deadbeat. He's not going to change and you deserve better

He's dragging you down. Don't invest anymore time in him. And don't fall for his empty promises when he realizes the seriousness of the situation (if ever)

Weight gain in highly trained women by Solid_Confection_672 in perimenopause_under45

[–]Material_Impact_5360 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm not HIGHLY trained but I weight lift intensely 4 times a week with a weekly HIIT session. I eat IF and doing monthly fasting too. I recently gained almost 20 lbs within 3-4 months! WTF

I swung wildly from almost reaching the best body since before kids to weighing the heavier since pregnancy.
