I'm a newbie to all of this....so I appreciate your help. 

I was just on a treadmill for 30 minutes and it only recorded some 700 steps. There's no way that's correct.

Hi @Connierock welcome to fitbit!

 

One of the more common problems with treadmills is that steps get missed if you hold on to the rails. Basically, if your arm isn't moving normally then your fitbit isn't tracking normally.

 

Could this be the problem here?
