I love my Garmin, I've got the vivoactive 3 with music, never looked back and I experience no fomo about any other watches

If fitness tracking is your primary use case, then the Garmin is more specialized to that. When using it you will more frequently home into contact with the sporty stuff, which might help get you get off your but. Apple watch is likely a better smart watch though, and better for work stuff.

I got the garmin! Waiting for it to come in this weekend!

I like it so far! Turned off notifications, gives me a reminder to move every hour when I’ve been sitting, I move a lot less a day than I previously thought so explains my weight gain, lasts about 6 days with battery life, tracks my sleep, and I get good data while working out.
I can’t say it’s drastically different than the fit bits I’ve owned but Fitbit never tracked my heart rate during weight lifting.

Having trouble losing weight and looking for suggestions. My standard caloric amount to maintain weight is about 2k (male/36/185lbs). Been eating at a 500 calorie deficit daily, so around 1500 calories a day, but I have very little energy to lift much weight at all when I go to the gym. Appreciate any practical recommendations, maybe eat more on days I workout? I'm just worried that having higher calories on my workout days and less when I rest could mess up my metabolism even more.
