I don’t care to have anything on my wrist. But I want to start tracking steps, especially over winter, to prompt myself into enough daily activity. So I’m going to try a ~$50 fitness tracker on my wrist and see how that goes. If I can get past the annoyance at having something on my wrist, I may shop around for a full smartwatch, or more likely wait for the next gen or two. I am deeply unimpressed with the size and battery life of the flagship smartwatches right now.
My go to is plain white rice with plain chicken thighs if I can stomach meat if not I’ll make it with some chicken broth.
If you’re struggling to eat for more than like a week you probably should bite the bullet and see a doctor. A prolonged lack of appetite can be a sign of some pretty serious stuff.
If taste isn’t a concern, I’ve gotten by with chlorella and cocoa chia pudding for longer than I care to admit. I don’t mind the taste of chlorella, but most people apparently don’t find it and other seaweed all that appetizing, but it’s a drink so you can just chug it like a beer or something and neutralize the taste with like a splash of lemon juice or water with lemon juice. Won’t fill your stomach all that much, though.
Miso soup (with wakame and maybe tofu and veggies cut down to tiny pieces?) is also a great addition to that.
Not sure if people will scorch this idea but one thing I love when I’m having trouble is scalloped potatoes cut up real small and you just graze it all day. Ginger ale is a nice companion but try to get as low dugar as you can find and use a metal straw and sip very preciously
I know there’s dairy and a bunch of other stuff but it goes down super easy and the trick is to have it in a million pieces so you can really go slow. Hope it helps
Casio G-Shock owner here. I prefer a watch to always know the time without checking my phone but I would never use IOT devices, including a smart watch for privacy & security reasons.
Yup, same here. Never really understood the G-Shock thing until I got one. The 5610U is truly one of the best watches hands down, and they’re cheap. I find myself using timers and alarms much more because I may not have my phone at all times (around the house etc). Solar to boot? It really doesnt get much better, they’re fantastic.
It disturbs me that we live in a time when the idea of words being copyrighted is one even worth thinking about, and that people would feel that they may have to self-censor their expression out of fear of it.
Tried various smartwatches and the problems always came down to one thing: battery.
Some of the watches batteries last a few days or a week but the screen remains dark and to see time you have to touch the screen our flip your wrist which gets on my nerves.
Now wearing a regular watch and each time I look at the time I’m in awe of the miracle of seeing the time displayed clearly.
When they come up with a watch that can keep the screen lit for at least a week without recharge I’ll reconsider…
I have a withings scan watch. Battery life is 25+ days. My original one, which hubby now wears, has a battery life of over 30 days but doesn’t record spo2. Both are water resistant up to 5 ATM, sapphire glass face and an analog watch face with a small, touch less, digital display. I will never not have a hybrid watch again.
Wife wanted me to wear my Samsung to our wedding yesterday. Yeah. It was dead after taking it to the camp where we had a cabin. One day, didn’t even wear it and it was dead.
One word, garmin. Garmin has its own special charger but it’s designed for ruggedneas and there are several adapters on the market that let you charge it with usbc. My 7x goes for 3+weeks with spo2 turned on and does everything else a normal smartwatch does like notifications, quick replies, music, etc.
You should look at garmin. My 7x goes for weeks with all data collection on and the screen is clear enough to see without the back light when there is enough ambient light.
Unless I am recording tons of workouts, I don’t have to charge the battery but every few weeks. I sometimes plug it in when I take a shower so I don’t have to worry about it.
