Here’s a dumb question 😬 I finally bought an under the desk treadmill (and am loving it!). I don’t like to wear my shoes inside the apartment so I’ve been using it barefoot but not sure if this is ideal? I thought about getting the “grippy” socks that are used for reformer Pilates but not sure if that’s good either. How is everyone else using their indoor/under the desk treadmills at home?

Okay, I have a new problem and need help. So thank you to all those who provided app recommendations to me in the past. Right now, I’m using my fitness pal to track food intake. I’ve significantly changed my diet the past 2 weeks. The amount of food I need to consume to hit the calorie intake is mind blowing. I’m doing intermittent fasting too. I feel very full trying to hit 1600 calories in 8 hours. It’s even more when working out according to the app. What do you recommend? Eat less?
