Looking for pals, women 40ish with 20-30 pounds to lose who are new to Fitbit.

Title says it all!! Looking for women to start a group with where we can encourage each other. Fun women who want to check in/chat throughout the day  and keep the momentum going.

Sounds great to me. i am looking to loss around 20-30 pounds in total.

[nmf]

Great! How long have you been using a Fitbit, Suszyq? I started today and am a little surprised at how few steps I've taken!

[Pat27]

Hello there! I just started using fitbit. I am looking to shed 20lbs and need some serious motivation.LOL I think the storeis and triumphs of others would be very helpful. A cheerleader of some sorts for each other, to keep you going! 

[nmf]

Exactly, Pat!!  Have you been dieting long and just started w/Fitbit, or is it all new?  I've been dieting forever, lol!!  Kind of 'low-grade' dieting. Always on my mind, not always doing something about it.. trying to make 2014 a little different!

[Pat27]

It seems like I have been dieting forever! I just got the fitbit for christmas and I think its a pretty cool way to see what you can actualy accomplish. Everything looks better in writing so to speak. LOL. I am in my 40's and just looking to shed some extra pounds and keep it off this time. The yoyo weight thing is getting to me.

Hi, i just got my fitbit force today in the mail. very excited.  so my steps are supper low! I think it will help me keep accountable. checked out how you can enter all your meals online. i really like that as you see how much of fat/sodium etc yo are eating.

[Pat27]

Yes it is a great little gadget! Still trying to find my way around the community and all the fitbit tracks! 🙂

Hi All 🙂

I just got my Fitbit for Christmas. I had a heart attack in October and came close to dying. I put the Fitbit on my wishlist and was really happy when I saw that Santa brought it to me!

I've lost about 20 pounds since the heart attack but I have another 30 to go at least.  It would be great to have buddies to push me and I will return the favor! 

Let's all turn into sexy minxes by Summertime! 

Boo

I am in my 40's and need to lose a bit more than 20-30, more like 40-50 but if you are willing for me to tag along I am happy to join your group. 

[Pat27]

Sorry to hear about your heart attack. I hope your doing well now. Losing 20lbs is awesome. We all need the little push. So I am here for you and anyone else just needing to chat and have someone push them to reach thier goals!!

[Pat27]

One step at a time for all!! Wether it be 5,10,50 or more! Just got to believe in yourself!!

[mzgombic]

I'm 38, but in the weight range... done this path before.  Up and down I go.  I think I like food too much, lol!  Just got my fitbit, but happy to join in!

[Pat27]

LOL, I love food also! My downfall is bread and chocolate!

[NatalieMarie]

I'm new to fitbit and need some encouraging friends too, please invite me. I am going to try to lose 35-45 lbs by summer.  I was able to gain it that fast :).  Good luck to all of us
