Come say hi & introduce yourself (2019)

[FitbitCommunity]

Welcome to the Fitbit family!

Whether you've just got your Fitbit or have been with us for years, share a little about yourself with the wider Fitbit fam. You might find someone with the same interests or even the same health goals as you. You can say hi any way you like but if you're stuck, kick it off with: 

1. Where in the world are you?
2. What is your current health/fitness goal?
3. How do you like to stay fit?
4. What motivates you?
5. Favorite guilty pleasure

Looking forward to getting to know you all.

It runs in our family as well. Fortunately we have all maintained it well. Those potential outcomes help me stay motivated. I don't want to loose any mobility and I want to ensure that I am always around for our kids, especially not as a chore. Currently I have been eating salads and I had to abstain from as many carbs as possible. With the 10lb gain, I went from trying to keep my blood sugar up because of occasional lows, to trying to keep it down. I also increased my activity level. Keep working at it, we can do this!!

Just BELIEVE in yourself and you can do this!!
