You know you're a Fitbit addict when...

  • You pace the house to get to a particular figure before going to bed
  • You sit down when recharging as you don't want to 'waste' any steps
  • You park further away from the shops to gain extra steps

you know you're addicted when you go to a big box store (and don't really need to) and go up and down every aisle--every one of them--   they have a lot of aisles, lots of steps    Smiley LOL

When you're petrol is lasting you twice as long as it used to because you now walk everywhere and park further away from shops.

I will get up to sweep and vaccum so that I can earn calories in case I want to eat something small before bed and I don't want to go over my goal of 1pd a week.  I looooooove the FitBit data and the challange it presents to stay within your caloric goal.  I'm getting my "gym rat" friends into it.  After every class, they will run to me to see how many calories I burned.  Purchased a "Flex" for my husband to compete in caloric input, output, and calories burned.  Constantly on my laptop reviewing and analyzing my data.  Love it!!

Sometimes I will step in place while cooking dinner lol.

I also park further away from the store. It drives my husband crazy when I mention how close he parks whenever we go anywhere! 😄

I step in place while doing ANYTHING. I also walk around my house if I haven't already hit 10,000.

You know you're an addict when you hit your goals by 10pm and still have the drive to hit the next level and do.  Sometimes I have a hard time quitting and go up till 11:59 pm!  Yes I'm a proud Fitbit Addict!  🙂

I took my husband to a Doctor Appointment and the Dr was 50 minutes late, rather than sitting for all that time, I paced around the large waiting room and read while walking. There were no other parients waiting at that time so the only people who thought I was nutz were the reception staff. I got in an additional 1 thousand steps.  Thats addicted 🙂

Best Answer

 . . . you walk to and from places at right angles instead of cutting across diagonally because you'll get in more steps.

I turn on the weather chanel while at work (only 3 days a week) and run in place whenever the local on the 8's comes on.  I did not do this before I had a FitBit.  Love that little thing.

Best Answer
I can relate to this 100%
Addicted when
*you only charge it when showering
*the one day you forgot to wear it to work you were CRUSHED
*if someone asks you about it you have convinced them to buy one within 3 mins
*every day when you hit your step goal you throw up your hands and celebrate!
*you see a flight of stairs and can't resist the urge to run up them 5 times.
*you cannot imagine your life without your beloved Fitbit
