hi I am 53 and need to get back in shape. My cousin who is the same age as me had a stroke a few months ago, he is ok and doing find but it opened my eyes. I use to go to the gym every morning before work, but I have not done that in years. Lately I been starting work at 6 am so I can't get to the gym before work. I am in construction so usually after work I am tired, but I got to quiet excuses and start going again. I go every Tuesday night and play in a raquetball league but that is not enough. I have started to use my iPhone to track my steps but don't like carrying my phone at work( don't want to ruin it) I have been thinking of getting a Fitbit for me and my wife.

    I bought a fitbit flex a couple of weeks ago and absolutely love it! I know the struggle of making excuses all too well! I joined a 24 hour gym and that has helped me a lot. You can do it!
