Simple solution...stop using health trackers or anthing that requires an app. Be brave, be bold and realistic. Does this crap really improve your little wage slave life. Just like Nancy Reagan "Just say no" betas

I wanted something that reminds me every time I have been sedentary for too long by vibrating so I can get up and move. I often get lost in my research and I don’t want it to affect my health. There are other ways to deal with this yes.

Yeah I don’t understand why people buy this crap. I’m pretty sure people can organise an exercise routine and get fit without the help of a data tracker and collector.

It’s like all the Amazon and Google bullshit people put in their house for a bit of convenience.
