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?

Hi! 

I live in Scotland, born and raised with no desire to leave. My current fitness goal is to lose a few pounds, while also building up strength, flexibility and endurance.

I like indoor exercises, such as treadmill, exercise bike and workout routines with a resistance band.

I am motivated by keeping a clear image of my goals in my head and reminding myself of why I should keep striving towards them through discussing them with others and looking at fitness inspo pages and progress pics.

If I had to choose a guilty pleasure it would probably be Disney music and other old songs from a decade ago too 😂

If your goals resonate with mine feel free to add my account so we can motivate each other!

Welcome to the Fitbit Community, @rachelmulraneyy. I also like Disney music and old songs from a decade ago. 

I hope you can find friends with the same interests here.

Hi everyone.  Kamloops BC here.  

My current goal is to get back to running.  I used to do 4 miles in 35 minutes but that was eight years ago, so I’ll take four miles period right now, lol.

I’ve gotten rather unfit over the past few years but I used to love running.  Right now I’m just playing Supernatural on the Oculus and it’s giving me back some good conditioning.

Health and longevity, and being able to fit into my old clothes again all motivate me.

My favourite guilty pleasure is more of a shame.  I’ve been nighttime snacking and I’m trying hard to break the habit, but it’s hard.  I love to ride motorbikes (I’m ATGATT but I ride too fast and too hard), camp, glamp, I hunt and I fish, but I don’t feel guilty in the slightest about any of those lol.

[AndreaFitbit]

Welcome, welcome @Teej77. 

I hope you can get back to running and that your old clothes fit soon. 😀

You´re right, we shouldn´t feel guilty about we like to do.

Have an amazing day! 

[lynnedavies1156]

Hi Anna B, that is Fab that you have lost 50lb, you must be feeling so much
better for it!! Good luck with loosing the other 32, I'm certain it will
come off quick, all the best and keep in touch and keep up the good work!!!
