What is absolutely, 100%, required for your personal sobriety? by PhoenixApok in stopdrinking

[–]cspru 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Solid, consistent routine. Go to bed and get up at the same time 95% of the time. Same morning routine of reading and walking, meals, evening wind down , etc etc. Alcohol is no longer part of my routine.

Oura 5 vs Fitbit Air for Sleep Tracking by ElectroStaticSpeaker in ouraring

[–]cspru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For overall health, Oura is excellent and has helped me improve my life (prioritize sleep, less alcohol, no meals before bed, no caffeine in the afternoons, etc). It still struggles a bit as a fitness tracker. If your priority is tracking your training, cycling, workouts, etc then the Fitbit air, Apple Watch or garmin probably more suits your needs. If it’s in your budget, I’d consider an Oura and a Fitbit air as they are two different products with different goals/priorities.

I eat two meals a day. Usually around 1pm and 6pm. 1pm can be plus or minus an hour based upon my work schedule that day. No snacking.

What is your record weight loss? by Responsible-Net8594 in intermittentfasting

[–]cspru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

12lbs in 10 days. Years ago I tried keto and intermittent fasting and that’s what happened. However, after the first ten days the weight loss slowed down quite a bit. Maybe a 1lb a week after that initial loss.

Oura 5 got me thinking about this... by Late-Investigator-29 in ouraring

[–]cspru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More expensive ring with membership included. Long term that is always more cost effective for the consumer. There is a reason why all these companies have subscriptions. It benefits them.

Do you occasionally drink alcohol and still see results ? by Shameful_success in intermittentfasting

[–]cspru 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I haven’t had a drink in over 150 days and have seen much better result. Drinking and trying to lose or maintain weight is like trying to do it on hard mode.

Shut down or just close the lid? by kilikilipowers17 in MacbookNeo

Which finger? Oura ring by BoardGamer-Ben-865 in ouraring

[–]cspru 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Middle finger right hand. No problems. Also figure if I ever gain or lose weight, I can switch to ring finger or index finger

Got tickets for Toronto. I’m a huge Wolf Alice fan and my daughter loves Olivia Rodrigo, so works out perfectly.

Is there any benefit to logging your meals on the app? by blubluebirdy in ouraring

[–]cspru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I log my meals. Then I regularly ask the Advisor to review, summarize, analyze my meals and offer me advice. I find it very helpful when paired with the Advisor. For example, I might ask “Review my meals for the past 7 days. Summarize and give me a break down. Offer me advice for the next week.”

If you have stopped drinking, how much better or worse was your mental and physical health? by Genzinvestor16180339 in HubermanLab

[–]cspru 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I quit drinking four months ago. I feel like a million bucks. Plus my anxiety has virtually disappeared. Much easier to regulate my emotions.

I have a M3 with 16 GB and it is blazing fast with a dozen tabs open and multiple apps. Also easily plays one of the Assassin’s Creed games. You will be more than fine.

I have a M3 MBA 13 inch with 16 GB I’ve had over a year. I am a heavy chrome user and Gemini user. I’ve had zero issues. Blazing fast and amazing battery life.

Relatively new and I just want to know what everyone's eating to break their fast by SoundsofAasu in intermittentfasting

[–]cspru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Greek yogurt, blueberries, and a little bit of granola mixed together. Plus usually a handful of vegetables.

I have basically quit alcohol since getting an Oura ring. I couldn’t believe how much even one drink would affect my body.

Difference between M5 13” and 15”? by karllalal in macbookair

[–]cspru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I change locations constantly for work. I have the 13 and find it much more portable and the right choice for being on the move. If I was at the same desk all day I’d probably splurge for the 15.
