Newbie in the UK, looking for friends

[Phil1927]

I've had my One for about 3 weeks and I am averaging about 60k steps per week (I'm not the most active of people on Sundays).  I am 39 and looking to lose about 6 stone, give or take (through MyFitnessPal & here) so I'd be glad of the motivation.

Welcome, Phil 🙂

Feel free to add me! I'm not looking to lose weight, really, but just get into better cardiovascular shape. I want to get back to running after over 2 years not running due to a very bad accident which tore a ligament in my knee.

Oh, btw, I'm from Canada 🙂

H Phil (and others), I've had my fitbit for a week and loving it.

I'm looking for a bit of motivation too, I've lost 10st, had lost almost 12 and at goal weight. Clearly I have had a little slippage!  Nothing like a bit of technology to encourage accountability 🙂

Was previously hard to remove from the gym, a frequent 5 and 10k runner, but my bit of weight regain and a number of injuries (laest is a clf tear) has undone my commitment.  But, I'm on the hunt for it!

Hi Phil,

I've had my Flex for three days. From the US and looking to lose 50 lbs. hoping that the Fitbit will inspire me to move more. I have a desk job and notice I have to work hard at steps on week days. Today I did not reach my goal. 😔 But will tomorrow!

I'm also in the UK (sunny midlands), also trying to lose 6 stone  and by the end of the year.

Hello Phil!  I have about 2 stone to go.  Anyone feel free to add me.  Good luck!

Hey Phil, I've had my Flex for about 2 months. Love it. I find I have been more motivated since using it. I have lost 44 kg since last Christmas...a bit of healthy competition is very motivating. 

Cheers Craig (Qld Australia)
