As both a user and an advertiser I agree. The communities I visit, if not the whole site, are faithfully anti-ad. But if I answer some questions occasionally somebody will get curious about my profile and check stuff out.

Thank you. That would be a great leading paragraph on their web page if anyone from the project is reading this.

Do you happen to know how Garmin compares to Fitbit in terms of performance analysis? Fitbit made some changes that I'm unhappy with and they refuse to offer us a way out. I'm thinking of talking to Santa Clause about this.

I'm not even sure it has to be registered. In at least one court case I know of (a local landlord case) the court assumed that a mailed letter was delivered properly.

I wonder if it's effective for their intended audience, though?

I exercise quite a bit, and have struggled with my weight when I exercise. It's kind of a paradox: I could lose weight or exercise, but not both.

Recently I accepted a $500 challenge to get down to a certain weight by a certain date, so I started taking the calorie in- calorie out bit seriously. I won the challenge of losing 30+ pounds and in so doing became very suspicious of the low-carb mentality I had adopted 25 years ago or so when the problem really surfaced.

To get through cardio I need carbs, and suspect that I would increase my overall calorie intake to get them as I was keeping my carb percentage low. Stop the exercise and I could take the weight off.

So I'm definitely back to the opinion that calorie balance is the real key (short of some metabolic disease). I'm 61 years old.

IIRC Microsoft lost in Europe, not in the US.
