Some of you may have read Chubby McGee’s post on http://chubzilla.blogspot.com/ about me sending her my body media calorie counter.
Why would I give away my weight loss tool?
2 big reasons.
Reason 1 – The Body Media and I have exhausted our relationship. I love the data it provides but there is some limitations about it that I do not like. I DO NOT want to discourage anyone from using this as a weight loss tool. It’s just not the right tool for me. The mechanisms behind the device do not allow it to read my exertion at a kettlebell class correctly. My arms stay nearly stationary so there it very little movement. I wish there was a device that would do what the body media (and body bugg) does and measure heart rate. As far as I know it doesn’t exist. I also began to dislike wearing it 24/7. It’s hard to put into words why I choose to no longer use the device. I won’t get into the other limitations.
Reason 2 – I think Chubby rocks. She had mentioned a desire to have a device like this. I love reading her blog and I feel a cyber kinship with her. Same relative weight, 2 crazy boys, etc. She has an amazing writing ability (not me) and easily conveys her thoughts with a humorous tone (again not me). I wish I had her tiny waist. For a month or so I have been looking at the Body Media sitting on my desk, collecting dust and I thought I could do something better with this. I could make someone else happy who deserves to be so. Chubby immediately came to mind.
I expect nothing in return. Consider it like me unexpectedly paying for your drive thru meal (not that you would eat drive thru :-). Pay it forward in some form is all I ask.
That was very cool of you! Good karma is sure to come your way! And I agree, Chubby rocks!
ReplyDeleteYup, that was very nice of you :)
ReplyDeleteThat was a very sweet gift :)
ReplyDeleteThat's so sweet of you to pass it on!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the awesome comment on my blog. I do think 200 is a set point. I remember having a hell of a time breaking through it before. Craziness!!
I am not interested in HCG, but I might try B12 just because I was a vegan for 17 years and I'm a 'non-meat' eater now.
Big, big, BIG hugs to such a wonderful gal. You've made me so happy. I feel incredibly lucky since I don't think I'll ever have the means to have something this luxurious for myself (and my crazy boys are NOT allowed to get anywhere near this thing either! LOL!).
ReplyDeleteI will totally be looking for as many opportunities to pay it forward as I can. I will also do so with you on my mind. ;)
P.S. Tiny waists, here we come (I'm definitely not there yet, kiddo - LOL!).
Very sweet of you. :)
ReplyDeleteI think you rock for doing that!
