2020 is still young, and many of us started with good resolutions. One could be, “I want to lose weight.” In this video, we will cover a “nerdy” way to do that. Which is astonishingly successful,
What do we use:
- A scale that automatically logs its readings into a database
- As usual, we will use node-red, influxDB, and Grafana on our Raspberry Pi
- An interesting scale
- A weight budget to compare. We will create it in Excel
- And, of course, a strategy to deal with the misbehavior
