I just quit it:)
The reason is very simple. I noticed that I don't need it.
I had been measuring my body fat percentage with my scale at home. But it is very inaccurate. I don't think I gained or lost 4% of body fat in a day.
A couple of days ago, I just asked myself "Do I really need to record body fat percentage?"
What I actually want to manage is my waist size. As long as my waist size is in my target range, I don't care how heavy I am and what my body fat percentage is.
I started recording body fat percentage casually. I thought that it's very easy to record, because I can measure it by just stepping on the scale, and I thought it would help me to manage my waist size somehow. But my scale didn't give accurate numbers, and it was not useful at all.
- Body fat percentage is not the main focus for me.
- Recording body fat percentage is not troublesome, but it is.
- It's inaccurate.
So, thinking about these three reasons, do I really need to record body fat percentage? NO!
Then I quit recording.
Of course I'm not saying that "recording and analyzing body fat percentage is unnecessary in general".
I'm saying that I don't need to record body fat percentage because it's not that important to my actual goal.
The point is that you can quit recording something if you don't need it.
Don't you have some activities which you don't need, but you just keep recording it in your Activity Set anyway?
To be honest, it took me a whole two months to notice this fact.
What we want is "better results with less recordings". Stay aware that recording is not the purpose. Have a great life with MyStats;-)
