• Almost died. Filled my pillbox wrong w/double the Keppra for a week and zero lamictal.

  Https://herohealth.com/ is the device I use. There are a couple of competitors I also looked into, but this one held most meds and had the best app, in my opinion. Source: about 1 year ago

• Help educate me…very concerned about my mom

  Keep a close eye on her eating habits and food safety though because if she has dementia that will become an issue. Also if she's on any medication now, she will have trouble dosing it correctly. We used this for a while: https://herohealth.com/ but a normal pill dispenser filled up by you every week could also work. Source: over 1 year ago

• Some life hacks if you have elderly parents who live alone.

  I also suggest the Hero medicine dispenser. It’s a robot(ish) that holds up to 10 medications. You set the dispensing schedule on your phone. It makes a bunch of noise and sends a message to the person’s phone (maybe calls) to remind them to take their medication. You also can see how many pills they have remaining. The best part is that I know when my grandmother hasn’t taken her medicine. It messages me and I... Source: over 1 year ago

• My mom wants her pills back.

  Mom was overdosing dad and he ended up with hyponatremia (low sodium in the blood) that nearly killed him. Based on someone's suggestion here, we got a Hero pill dispenser. All the meds are locked inside—you can control the schedule and adjust meds via an app, even receive alerts if a dose was missed, etc. I still had to write out instructions for mom (press the button) and I still get calls from her saying the...

• Feeling discouraged

  I have tried crash diets in the past and have never felt this good or this energetic. I'm going to keep going like this until I'm at my goal weight. I gained 60 lbs from taking this antipsych med called zyprexa (it's known for extreme weight gain fast but I was like I'd rather be mentally ok than fit and thin right now so I'm basically trying to reverse it. I use loseit.com to track my cals and exercise works... Source: about 1 year ago

• no motivation

  Follow that guide and that timing, and you'll be able to start putting some data around your diet. Start with your regular, normal food. My favorite tool for this is now-better LoseIt! Over MyFitnessPal which has been on the decline for years. Source: over 1 year ago

• [23] I gained about 10 kgs in the past year. starting from zero knowledge on weight loss any advice? pics are from 2021 dec and last week (2023 mar)

  You can use a TDEE calculator to work out approximately how many calories your body is using per day. You need to eat in a deficit of around 15-20% of your TDEE to see decent weight loss. You can use an app like Lose It! To track your food intake and see how many calories you're eating. People are notoriously bad at underestimating the calories that they consume so I really recommend you do some calorie tracking.... Source: over 1 year ago

• Is 1200 calories actually enough?

  At 1200 kCal/day you'll certainly lose weight, but it probably won't be safe... My older-but-similarly-sized spouse gets about 1600 (to lose weight) if she sits on the couch, so being active will certainly bump that up. We use an app called lose it to track both food and exercise and it seems to do a decent enough job for me and her. So your 1200 may be fine if you're a couch potato, but it sounds like you need...

• Progress tracking app?

  I use LoseIt. I've used it since I started on phentermine back in 2007, so it has a lot of historical data for me. It has a good barcode scanner and remembers your most frequently added items so once you put in a meal, you can just click into that section when adding foods and it will have the full list of ingredients from meals there.
