    Is Calorie Counting model really flawed?

    HOT! HEALTH 
    I'm going to disagree with most of the people in this thread (and the fitness community) and say that Calorie Counting is bullshit and doesn't work for most people. I personally was always just a little overweight ("skinny fat") and would try calorie restriction to lose weight. It would work to...

    Ask Me Anything - Facebook Ads [2M+ Ad spend]

    HOT! MARKETING 
    So I got to 1000 impressions on all 4 of my adsets and I haven't had any more leads come in. :( I'm planning to pause the 2 ads that got 0 leads and then maybe duplicate the campaign with the 2 that did work. Hopefully they pick up a different segment of the audience pool. Do you think that's...

    Ask Me Anything - Facebook Ads [2M+ Ad spend]

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Yeah I'm very pleased with $9/lead. If I can get the follow-up down this could be very profitable. All my adsets are only on a $5/day budget already lol. (4 adsets = $20/day total). It's been 2 days so I'll let it run for another day and they should be at 1000 impressions each by then. Thanks...

    Ask Me Anything - Facebook Ads [2M+ Ad spend]

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Right, so I launched the campaign after I posted. So far I've gotten 4 leads at ~$9/lead. 1 has turned into a conversation and 2 I haven't been able to get a hold of yet. The last one had fake info as far as I can tell. Lead quality should be much higher than outbound but yes they are still...

    Ask Me Anything - Facebook Ads [2M+ Ad spend]

    HOT! MARKETING 
    What do you think of FB lead ads? Particularly for the real estate niche. I'm an investor not a realtor and I've seen other investors say this is the ad type that performs best for them. Makes sense to me as FB wants to keep the user on their platform (more $$$ for them) and the lead from is...

    Can Anyone recommend a Serious Pinterest Course?

    MARKETING 
    Can't personally vouch for it but I've heard Jenna Kutcher has a Pinterest course that was good. You'll have to do your due diligence though these Internet Marketing courses are always a crapshoot.

    Must See Movies, Recommendations?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Trance - trippy scifi and beautifully shot Predestination - scifi mindfuck Moon - more weird scifi lol Coherence - indie scifi I agree with others who have recommended anime. It's really just a style of animation with tons of genres within it. It's not all kids stuff like you may think. But...

    @ChrisV thanks for sharing that Ending Addiction video series. Watched a few episodes and I'm enjoying it. As someone who has had addictive tendencies it's very eye opening. I've gotten a lot out of this thread and am working through some of my own behavior issues. I have a big problem with...

    Anyone Have Experience With LASIK Eye Surgery?

    HEALTH 
    I had it done and I highly recommend it. A great investment. Had astigmatism in both eyes. Now my vision is perfect. No more glasses or contacts. I can wear sunglasses now too. Made my life a lot easier, especially for exercising. It's pricey but you can probably finance it like I did.

    NEW BESTSELLER from 'HOOKED' Author. Simple and Real Solutions: How to Be "Indistractible." Nir Eyal Book Discussion.

    Thanks for the great summary @Bertram Overall what do you think of the book? MUST read or just worthwhile? Thought this insight was super fascinating. Most people DO focus on how to be happier, and that does lead to a lot of distractions and addictions.

    Doing the Andy Frisella "75 Hard" Challenge

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Have you considered putting "take a photo" into Jefit somehow? Not sure if you can put custom exercises, but if you can I think that might help. Put it as the last task on every workout. Or you could tie it with another event like waking up, your shower, finishing your last bottle or water...

    [GUIDE] Facebook Ads Made Simple (That Even Your Mom Can Understand) 2019 Edition

    NOTABLE! SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    Thanks for this great post! I'm looking to drive traffic to a website in the near future, and FB ads seems a good option. A few questions. With your 'no brainer' campaign structure, if you were on a smaller budget, say $300/mo, or $500/mo, how would you allocate the money between the three...

    @Kung Fu Steve turned me onto Tony Robbins Hour Of Power audiotape. There's a 15 minute priming ritual and then it's an optional 45 minutes of exercise to complete the hour. The priming consists of moving and breathing (in a specific pattern), gratitude and visualization, and then incantations...
