I love https://darebee.com/ for all of their free body weight exercises. They have individual workouts and a bunch of programs that you can try. I personally like the programs so it’s less work for me having to pick out my workout everyday, plus some of them have fun rpg storylines.

I’m not sure how you feel about the dairy industry, but Greek yogurt has been a life saver for me. I didn’t even really like yogurt before this, but it’s very much grown on me. I take chobani fruit on the bottom yogurts to work as breakfast everyday as I get the flats of them at Costco and they are very transportable (110cal, 11g protein) and at home I have fage 2% (120cal, 17g protein) with a splash of vanilla and either some fruit or a little drizzle of honey.

For non-dairy protein lentils are awesome. I like the brown lentils best, the ones you get when you pick up a pack just labeled “lentils.” You can do an easy lentil soup with just chicken broth, sautéed onion, celery, and carrot. Then just toss in a cup of lentils and a bay leaf and let it simmer for an hour. Or dahl is a very easy one pot dish that’s easy to batch cook. I use this recipe https://www.noracooks.com/red-lentil-dahl/ but let it simmer longer with my brown lentils.

For a snack, carrots and hummus is great, just be careful on portion sizes because the fat content in hummus is also high.

LoseIt! is the app I use. The free version has very good functionality. I pay for premium currently because I wanted to put food in future days and track protein, but you really don’t need to. I didn’t for several months. It’s a very intuitive interface and the way it does streaks and cutesy motivation things works really well for me. I also like the big calendar that the iOS version has because it helps me visualize my weekly calories, not just the daily version.

I agree with the other commenter about the database being somewhat questionable, you have to be a little discerning. Typically I look for entries that have other nutrition facts listed besides the calories. You can also filter for verified only. But it’s quite good for individual ingredients, so as long as you’re logging 1 tortilla, 2 eggs, etc rather than just “breakfast burrito” it shouldn’t be a problem, and that’s a more accurate method anyway. But I also have heard great things about chronometer.

Yep! I’m honestly loving the chaos. It’s been really interesting to see all of the organic growth happening at such a visible rate.

I don’t expect the duplication to be too much more of an issue here than Reddit. The only big difference is that duplicate forums can have the same name here. I mean, how many meme subreddits were there? At least for me on beehaw, when I search for communities it shows how many subscribers there are. In this period of rapid growth, it’s certainly a bit of a crapshoot and you may need to regularly search communities to see if any take off, but I expect in the next month or so, some communities will become large and their duplicates will pretty clearly die, just like with Reddit.
