I know some people that have fitbits, but I'm not friends with them on here. I've never done a challenge with friends before and I think it would be cool to be motivated by strangers. Add me as a friend!

Hi all im looking for fitbit friends i have a step goal of 12000 daily and failed it once this week so in need of a bit of motivation. (42 and unfit 🙂 ) (Fitbit blaze)

48, located Brisbane, Australia and intrinsically lazy 🙂

Would love new Fitbit friends for challenges.  I usually average 11K/day but have been ramping that up with a 6 week challenge that requires 13K-16K+ per day.

Hi there! I'm new to the whole tracker scene and just received the Charge HR for my birthday. I was diagnosed with lung cancer and underwent a lobectomy and chemotherapy. I finished treatments in March of 2014. But, steroids I was given to help manage pain resulted in significant weight gain (Approx. 50lbs). Coupled with nerve damage from both surgery and chemo, I was in pretty sad physical condition. Once treatments ended I joined a gym and I am faithful about going 5 days a week for an hour and half or more each day and I do both cardio and strength training. I've actually become a gym junkie! I'm not a great one for walking, but I have found myself striving to walk just a bit more each day since getting my fitbit. I would love new friends to help keep me motivated and who I can hopefully motivate as well 🙂

Hi all! 

I ordered my Fitbit Blaze yesterday and am excitedly waiting for it to arrive. I'm currently using the app on my phone to track steps until it gets here, but I would definitely like some friends to compete with and motivate! I know how much I benefit from a bit of friendly competition (otherwise I can be a little lazy, oops!) so please feel free to add me as a friend 🙂

Hello folks, I'm Chip.

I've had a fitbit Surge since February and with it's help I've been able to shed 13lbs so far and I'm continuing to strive for another 7lbs at the least. I've hadn't had any friends thus far and I think its time for a few now. Feel free to add me. I think this weigtloss business works best in groups.

Had my fitbit for about 1 month now and just recently found out I can make some friends here. Anyways, 20 years old, 3rd year college student, hospital job, and applying for medical school. Basically, looking for people who could keep up with me with some decent knowledge and wisdom about being healthy, lol.

Feel free to add me. I'm addicted to using this fitbit. So far I'm competing against my husband. I'm 22 and a mother of two boys. I'm from Wisconsin. It would be fun to make friends and get motivated with others!!
