Daveyb84 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Make a one handed controller, I did https://accessrc.wordpress.com/2014/03/07/running-video-using-wii-nunchuck/ So that's possibly one of the best ideas I've seen. So how?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oodboo Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 So that's possibly one of the best ideas I've seen. So how?? I just stripped bits out of a Wii nunchuck and put my own wires in and connected then to some transmitter bits I stripped out of a tx.https://accessrc.wordpress.com/2014/02/21/first-test/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a while since I've had time to develop the idea further but I'm hoping I'll be able to take it a bit further soon. I've got ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigjimknickers Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 5:2 begins again today. Weekly weigh in on Friday then every Friday from then on. Today, fast day, I had a latte & 2 litres of water, then for tea a bowl of Rice Krispies- no added sugar. Meant to keep under 600 calories on a fast day, I reckon that'll do it.

Bigjimknickers Posted June 27, 2016 Author Share Posted June 27, 2016 Got on the scales at the scrap yard today, 116KG (fully dressed, boots on, fortunately for the guys there!) seems that my new scales need to go in the bin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QRC Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 (edited) My wife and I use to have Fitbit bands, great piece of kit, very motivational, although one major failure, it's not waterproof. So couple of months ago we found a Garman version and haven't looked back, have not changed foods or diets, but have increased the steps/ activity level. These are waterproof, great app for your phone, currently doing 20,000 plus steps per day. Edited June 27, 2016 by QRC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derka Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I've got the Garmin Vivoactive but with recent updates to the device and/or Garmin Connect app it, it is now tracking sleep properly anymore. I do love my Garmin though. I think Fitbit do have a better software side of things, ie more informative and more user friendly but the Garmin for me wins because its fully waterproof to 50m so you do not need to worry about water at all. I am thinking about upgrading to the Vivoactive HR... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
