Hey guys! Back today with a fitness update.
As most of you know, I recently started a job in Boston. The upside? I get to walk to work! The downside? I spend a lot of time sitting at my desk (and I mean a lot). The LEAF by Bella Beat came into my life at the most perfect time and I can’t express to you how much I love it.
I’ve always been weary about fitness trackers because when it comes to staying fit, I’m number-obsessed. I want to know exactly how many calories are coming in and out, and I have always tracked this in MyFitnessPal (also recommend if you don’t have the app already.)
The LEAF completely changed that for me – which I think is a good thing. It’s more of a “wellness” tracker than a fitness tracker and gives you a general idea of how much activity you’ve had throughout the day. It’s been a nice break not thinking so much about calories in, calories out (I have enough to think these days!) – and honestly, mental health is just as important. Sometimes when we become too obsessed with what we are eating and how much we are working out, it can take a toll.
Here’s an idea of what the LEAF tracks + sends straight to your iPhone…
My favorite things about the LEAF? If you don’t feel like wearing it on your wrist, it can clip on to your bra or you can wear it as a necklace. Like I mentioned above, the LEAF is different than other trackers because it takes into account all aspects of your health. It tracks your sleep, your menstrual cycle, your daily steps, and even has guided mediations! I struggle a lot with anxiety at night and it has seriously helped me fall asleep.
Low-key obsessed with getting as many steps in as possible. It’s like a game to me (I’m a 5 year old.)
What do you guys do to stay on track? Let me know down below.
