    Hello, I'm 64 and just received a Fitbit from my daughter for Christmas. Not toooo out of shape but would like to control my eating habits more as I do like my junk food every now and then. Want to work out more and it would be fun to have others to help me along on that! :)

    Hello, I am 51 and just got fitbit charge for Christmas. Still trying to figure out how to use it. Only real thing having issue with is my strength training and kick boxing and cardio workouts, how to log them. Do I do the workouts with the stopwatch on or log them manually after done them since I know how long each workout is? Any help and guidance would be appreciated.

    Either one. It'll take trial & error to find which you prefer. You can log exercise either in Fitbit or in MFP—never both.

    And never, ever log exercise in MFP as 1 calorie—whatever you log in MFP overwrites your Fitbit burn during that time. (Which is why I log my exercise in Fitbit rather than MFP.) Some people are obsessed with having their workouts appear in their MFP newsfeed.

    Hi All! Just activated my new Fitbit! I'm 53 and looking to lose about 25lbs. I work for a health club but have a desk job. Hoping my new toy will motivate me to get in more exercise. I would love to have some buddies to help me learn how to use all the Fitbit features and MFP. Please add me!
