    I’m back after falling off the calorie-counting-fitness pal-wagon for a few months. Been faithfully counting and staying active for the last 3+ weeks.

    Would love some friends for accountability and support.
    I’m 43, have two teenage boys, LOVE my daily treadmill-music-pumping time, and love my Fitbit!

    Enjoy your day everyone!

    I don’t have a Fitbit , but I would love to encourage you along the way 😀

    I really enjoy my Fitbit! It’s great for accounting for movements during the day! I do sitting office work, and it was shocking to see how inactive I was! Now I use my Fitbit to make sure I’m moving throughout the day 😊

    I have a Garmin Vívofit, which I like. It’s waterproof and tracks steps and sleep and calories and probably more that I don’t use. And it was less expensive than a Fitbit. But (vanity here!) it’s not the chicest thing to have on my wrist. The clip is Ok, but I forget to move it. What model Fitbit do you (anyone!) have that you really like and why?

    I have an Alta; I like that I can change the band on it to be more stylish (vanity haha). It comes with an easy to us app. I do wish I had one that monitored heart rate; but it does track sleep! I like that the app allows you to have friends to do daily/weekly/weekend challenges with!

    I LOVE my fitbit. It is an obsession. I have the Charge 2 and the Versa. The Charge 2 was easier to use but the Versa feels better on my wrist and has more options to play with.

    I want to brag on myself for just a moment. I am so proud of myself and know you ladies would understand. :-) I just finished a stressful, super busy weekend. My daughter was in the Nutcracker (her studio always does it in January) Friday and Saturday. My inlaws were visiting and the amount of junk food they bring into our home is just absolutely ridiculous. AND we celebrated my daughters 15th birthday last night. So many opportunities to let the stress overtake me - i did enjoy some birthday cake and a few pieces of chocolate here and there, but I when I got on the scale this morning I lost 0.8 lb!!! I'll take it!!

    Recital week is always stressful! Congratulations on your loss! That’s an excellent victory!

    WOW, I leave on vacation for a week and this thread has really taken back off again, I LOVE IT!!! Love seeing all the new faces:)
    I did gain 3.5 pounds while I was in the Dominican Republic, not from the food though....yuck, it was all those dang Pina Coladas :):) I did manage to keep fairly active with pool volleyball, zumba, yoga, dance lessons and a ton of walking. There were days my Garmin said I had more active calories than resting calories....lol. I honestly thought I would have gained more, but I can deal with 3.5 pounds...Back to logging my food intake again.
    I have read through most of the updates & you ladies are doing AWESOME!!!! Keep up the great work!
    Here's to a great week:)

    Hello everyone! I just turned 41 last month. :smile:

    I want to lose 50 pounds. I mostly do home workouts and I need to get better about tracking.

    Please feel free to add me, I love to give, and could use some support!
