Re: Recommended Bluetooth headphones

Jaybirds are still holding up well for me. I don't use the ear sails at all, but wear them in the behind-the-neck way and they stay in my ears well enough, as long as I don't jerk my head around too much anyhow. Charge still holds up OK, I only charge once a week and use them all the time during wor...

Re: Tips for those difficult last pounds?

Equilibrium might be right. I adjusted my diet drastically (for instance, from ordering pizza three or four nights a week to maybe once every two months, and cutting down on refined sugars), and this seemed to work very well for the first forty lbs combined with the exercise I was getting, however a...

Re: Recommended Bluetooth headphones

Hi Greg, I couldn't get them to fit with the 'ear sails' in place as these seem to pop them out of the ear canal so this is not optimal for me, but there are different ways to wear them and I found one that suits me. Without the sails and using the over-ear method with medium sized buds, they're snu...

Tips for those difficult last pounds?

After spoiled twenties with work stress, lots of beer and smokes and an unhealthly diet, I started changing my lifestyle almost two and a half years ago. At the time I was 240lbs (I'm 5'11"). I've changed my diet, quit smoking and started exercising regularly. I didn't want to rush anything and end ...
