Calorie tracking: My net diary app

 Along with my sugar free diet, I decided to start calorie counting and tracking to see how much I eat in a day and boy let me tell you. Some of the foods that looks like there's barely any calories in them there is a lot not only of calories but fats and sugar and some of them you would never know it. The calorie tracker I use is My Net Diary and it pretty much calculates a lot of things from weight, what I am eating, what is inside of what I eat. 

There is even an AI that detects what your food is when you take a photo of it. If it has a barcode you can scan it in and see if it is there and if it is not, you can log it by hand or take a photo of it and it will update it for you. There is a lot in this app and it is useful. It also tracks water intake, your steps and if you exercise which is a good all in one app. 

There is a premium that gives you a lot more things such as recipes and meals, daily feedback and advice and a few other things in which sounds great but I do not have the money so I only use the free side and had no issue. 

Join here! I do not get commission or anything for it just wanting to share it. Can be used on android or apple!  

Something else I pair this app with is my smart watch because it allows me to gather certain things like my heart rate, my exercise and how many calories I have lost just from walking or whatever it is that I am doing. This app goes hand in hand with it and is very useful and you can even log what your watch says into the MyNetDiary app and it is just a life saver. Since the watch connects to your phone also.

Get you a smart watch here! There are so many different kinds and shapes! They are so worth it. 

Sugar Free diet

After years of being sugar dependent and wanting to switch up my diet but my mindset would not allow me to. It was hard. I struggled with the mindset that I am going to switch up my diet, I am going to stop drinking sodas and I felt like I was lying to myself, in which I was.

 I kept saying I am going to get off of sugary sodas and I was going to do this and I was going to do that but in the long run I was not until recently. When I first wanted to do this, it was like I could not. It was like my body wanted it, craved it and I depended on it but now, it has totally changed and now I want nothing but sugar free.

 I have stopped drinking sugary drinks and have switched to Sugar free sodas and boy I can tell the difference. I can actually tell the difference especially if I take a sip of non sugar free drinks. Now the non sugar free drinks taste like syrup. 

I also drink water with water flavor packets and squeeze's  to change the taste since something, I cannot drink water and it makes me throw up. 

I am also working on switching out sugar to Splenda in which, growing up I use to use it also because I was a borderline diabetic and it helped me by taking out the normal sugar content. 

I do not eat cake really and it is rare for me to eat chocolate so I do not have to cut that out but I do have to work on pasta and breads in which I am going to work on eventually. I also love a good salad so I have no issue there. 

I have noticed switching to this diet that I do not say bloated like I was. I also am not having pancreatitis like I was since switching and I wake up in a better mood and feeling everyday. I also noticed that I am not dehydrating as much as I would with sugary sodas and I am not battling kidney stones anymore. 

I also found that I am able to eat more now then when I was drinking sugary sodas.

I also am taking Digestive Enzymes to help break down things since I do have the problem where my digestive tract has issues to the point where my system does not digestive well. My GI told me this would help me in the long run and I take it everyday and it helps me also with any discomfort that I feel and it helps me eat a little more then I normally would.

This diet made me feel a lot better. 

 

Cross: Prime TV

If you are into a detective, cop type show, I highly recommend this. This show is really good and based off a book.

There are a lot of plot twists in it that you would have not seen coming and the ones that you seen coming do not always end up that way. This show will have you on the edge of you seat from the events that happens.

It is a crime thriller, forensic and psychologist type of show. This show also has serial killers and basically Cross has to go through putting pieces of the puzzle together to solve who is the serial killer and who killed his wife. He is also the person who is highly wanted because he is very good at his job.

I would not watch this show around kids due to there are drug usage and other things in this show including nudity and violence.

This show is only on Amazon Prime so you will have to join or take out a trail to watch it and to me it is worth the watch. I could not stop watching it when I first started. I was binge watching because the plot and the twist was just that good. There is only one Season so far that has 8 episodes in it. Season 2 is suppose to come out sometime in April 2025 since it has already been approved and renewed.

Watch Cross here!

Sinners 2025 movie: Spoilers

Let me start by saying, this movie was everywhere but where it was suppose to be. This movie is a vampire style, share-cropper, fieldworkers, a root worker, segregation and the Klan with gangsters type movie. This movie is based in a little town in Mississippi, that is nothing but a black town with three Asian people. The story in which there is not much of a story is being told by Sammy who is a little boy that is a preacher man son who loves to play Blue on a guitar that his gangster twin cousins gave him. One of them ended up lying saying it was a specials musicians guitar but it ended up just being their dads and it kind of twisted the whole narrative in which the Vampires say he drew them in with the guitar but it is kind of weird.

From there it twists in modern day music and then it goes right back to that time. Then out of no where vampires appear with no background or anything just the Indian are chasing him and then the people he went to opens the door and let him in and they get bit and then from there they go down to the barn that the gangsters bought and then they start biting people.

From there there’s a battle and then it pretty much ends but wait, there’s a second ending after the credits roll. None of this makes sense and there is no story to it. I thought it would be like the Charlie Daniels the devil went down to Georgia style with the Fiddle kind of vibe in which it was kind of like that but not like that at the same time.

Like the ending also did not make any sense, the vampires did not kill Sammy at the second ending either like you would think. Sammy opens up a musical bar pretty much and plays his music even though his cousin told him not to and that we wanted better for him in which he disregarded his dad and his cousin’s wish and does what he wanted to, something he was good at. I kind of expected that his cousin and his cousins lady would bit him in the second ending but that did not happen, they just walked out and left after they offered to turn him and end his pain and suffering.

A lot this is not a really a kids friendly movie as there is nude parts but not nude parts at the same time.

It appears the way it ended there may be a part two of it. I had high hopes of it but it ended up not exceeding them and just left this eh feeling. I thought it was going to be a good movie with a story line but it was the complete opposite of it. It is also rated for horror and there is no horror in this movie really. There is more action then horror.

 

Moto Razr 2024 Review

 

The Moto Razr 2024 is such a sick phone. This phone has 8gb of ram ontop of 4 more with the ram booster and this phones speeds.

This phone is quick and easy to use with no problems. After having to return the Oscal Tiger 13 because it didn’t work on our network we got the moto razr 2024 and we have fallen in love with it. We had the Moto 5G 2024 but it became sluggish so we decided to move phones and found this one.

This phone is so cool the camera is crispy and if you turn the phone around, you can use the close screen to take a selfie and it knows when you are in portrait mode.

I love this phone. It is so cool. There is so much with this phone that is just different from the others.

This one is really cool with closing it and still accessing everything else you need on the home screen. It allows you to navigate through everything on that screen and if you tap it, it will wake it up. It allows you to wirelessly charge and the volts needed is 15W. In which is also cool. This phone also can run Warzone mobile and a few other games in which I love this being a gamer and reviewer. 

It comes with a warning when you turn the phone on that if you take the screen protector that is on it off it will void the warranty.

You cannot also put a third party one on it either unfortunately due to the same thing. I personally love how neat this phone is and it is kind of heavy just saying.

The one of the updates not the recent made the battery uncalibrated so you have to let it die all the way to 0% even though it will turn itself off and say its 0% you have to plug it up and then turn it on, unplug it and let it die completely for it to recalibrate. This is the only thing we have found wrong with it. Force reboot it and then put it back on the charger until 100% and then let it sit on the charger for about an hour to override it.

Also make sure all the updates are done, that could also fix it in which it did fix mine. I highly recommend these phones! They are worth it.

Black View Oscal Tiger 13 Review

We wanted something different so we got Black View Oscal Tiger 13 5G. This phone looks so cool and does a lot of things. This phone however lacks a lot of things.

This phone is not fully unlocked even though the listing says it is so you are going to have to edit your ports to allow your service through.

It only works best on Boost Mobile and T-Mobile. It is missing Band 17 so it will not work on most USA services. You have to go to the carriers website and make sure it can. Some of them will give you false information though unfortunately so be sure to do your research. I am not sure what it works on on international because these phones are originally from Hong Kong in which these phones are not bad at all.

It also says Europe and Japan when you go into the system information.

This phone is an alright phone. It cannot play games like COD on high settings only low settings. This phone does get warm when you turn it on.

It also does not have an SD slot but it does have dual SIM card slots you can use. You can also change the notification for either sim card so that whenever someone calls one phone number it rings different than the other.

The battery also lasts a long time and does not die quickly like other phones does.

This phone also gives you a user manual on the phone that is an app and it tells you exactly what to do if you want to try do it yourself. I highly recommend these phones. It comes with a temper glass, a case and charger.

I had to return these phones because they did not work on my service and even though we got it on the service it kept going in and out and every time we tried calling out it gave a busy signal along with server and network not found. We ended up giving up and sending them back for a refund. The only thing that was wrong was we needed band 17 for our servers and network where the phone did not have that. Other services may not need it but we do for Walmart Family Mobile and Straight Talk.

Blu Bold k5 unlock- Review 2 month

For starters trying to get the phone over on the Tracfone wireless it was a run around because we needed Sim card B so we had to get that and then we had to sit for an hour trying to get the agent to understand we did get the sim card B and that the phone is unlocked then once they understood and found it in the system, they programed it and turned it on.

Now here is the thing, this phone is a pain! It is a total pain to deal with. This phone well for starters it is suck in Android 14 software 15 does not go to it so it is behind two updates not sure if it can go that high or not.

This phone decides to cut its WIFI off having you to loose WIFI calling and it becomes a pain to fix back. Then when you try to call people prior to fixing the wifi that you already fixed, it decides you have to turn the WIFI off for you to call out and it is just a pain. Some of the calls do not go through, sometimes if you try to call out it gives you a busy signal when the other person you are trying to call is not even on the phone. We know since we tested it calling our phones and it done the same thing. This phone, it is not the greatest phone. I am not sure if its just this one that has a defect or if it was all of them but just from the experience, this one is not a good one.

If you wanna try this phone get it here! I bought it here on amazon!

Let me just say, we bought a Blu Bold K5 for the mother in law and let me tell you it has been nothing but a headache. I am not sure if it is the phone itself or just the Service she has since she has Safelink which is based off of T-Mobile towers now but the phone is a pain and we have to keep fixing it for her. This has never happened on a MOTO or the TLC or the other Blu she had but this one is it. It is a cheap phone that is only $79.99 and it is unlocked and is a 2025 one. I highly recommend Motos they are so much more durable and better. Never had an issue with them on any service. The only reason she changed from her moto was because it was time for an upgrade but apparently buying this phone was downgrade.
