Have been tracking my steps on my cell phone but didn't like how inconsistant it was, got a FitBit Zip today and gotta say, I like the features of the website.

Having a desk job I realized I was getting lazy and starting to get squishy...so I want to change that.  This is day one!

Congratulations welcome to Fit  Bit

[Pamela_June]

...welcome... 😀

Yesterday was my first day.   I am completely addicted.

Hi! Couldn't pass up the $50 zip at Target, looking forward to seeing what I can do.

Just picked up my Fitbit One. Easy setup and synced it to MyFitnessPal which I stared about two weeks ago and log daily. I have a good number of friends on MFP and when I looked up friends for Fitbit....I found just one. Hopefully will get to add more.

A very warm welcome to FitBit to all the new members! Prepare to become incredibly addicted and undertake all manner of healthy and sometimes nutty lifestyle changes in order to hit those targets! 

[KathyApple]

I will try to send you a friend request on MFP!!!

Kathy yes you can scan stuff and it works awesome on MFP. I use that feature for a lot of stuff like Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers, snack bars etc. works great! 🙂

I just got my new fitbit and think I have it set up OK, now I have to wait for someone to come home and fasten the clasp for me as my old fingers just can't close the jolly thing. Itching to go out for a walk and see what I clock up.

[flyersfan]

If you have trouble with the FitBit clasp, try using it with a bracelet clip.

[SunsetRunner]

I got hubby to do it for me and I'm sure as it gets used a few times it will become easier. I was most interested in the sleep stats, I knew I was a restless sleeper but to confirm that I woke 10 times and had 9 hours restless sleep and 45 minutes good sleep was most interesting. No wonder I'm always tired.

Just saying hello to the community. Took the plunge today and bought a FitBit Flex, been using it today and so far so good. 

Happy to connect up here and join in some challanges. I've got about 60lbs to lose to get to my target weight, hopefully this will be an added bit of motivation on the journey.

Already today I've started making calls on my mobile so I can leave my desk and walk and talk!! 

See you guys around the community 🙂

Today is my 2nd day tracking with the fitbit and I must say it's amazing. Seeing the numbers motivates me to workout daily.
