@Gabe86 the app actually depends on the phone you are using

There is one in samsung called s-health I think it comes preinstalled with it
There should be something on iphone too but I am not aware of it, never used that
But to be honest I dont really find them correct, I normally measure the distance I walk on google maps, its a lot more accurate and I see how much time I walked that in to get an idea of the speed I walked that at.
But that is what I do
Then you have calculators online where you can enter your age height weight etc and get how many calories you burnt.
Hope this helps.
Thank you

Dont worry Gabe we are all over the world here on the forum. You are beginning to get good numbers but still a long way off from 5's or 6's but a progress is a progress no matter what and I am really happy how you have got it down from 30's i remember to less than 10.
Great going all the best and you will get into 5's and 6's soon with the way you have made progress so far.

No worries Gabe. There's a globe trotted or two, some in Canada, some Australia.... And we're none of us around at the same time of day anyhow. Not a bad 9.3, its creeping down nicely :)

If I eat late and keep sipping the red wine I seem to have lower readings in the morning... liver is fooled into thinking I'm ok I suppose... :)
I just love long diners and red wine but I don't know what it does to my BS yet , think I may find out tomorrow night !!!:nailbiting:

Stick with ,I used to smoke 80 a day, that was almost 26 years ago. Its bxxxxy hard to stop but the rewards are great. The golden rule is never again, not even one puff.
47 years finished on 40 a day, thanks for the advice

Lots to think about there AB.... The car insurance is a very good point... Can we keep the discussion on here, if everyone agrees, as I often don't have time to visit other threads? It's not derailing, it's very relevant....

It's not my call whether anyone starts a new thread or not, but I'd say it wasn't relevant to this thread topic, and I doubt would come up in any search made for relating meters/insurance/strips etc, which is more to my point.

Whilst you may not have time to visit other threads, you could watch the thread, with alerts, and that emails you every time anyone responds to a thread. I personally, find it very difficult visiting this thread these days. I have to wade through a load of chit chat to find what I might be looking for, which is a shame.

But the threads belong to the posters. @cazza54 - I haven't caught up this morning yet, so apologies if you have already taken action on this, but can you see my point about searches?
