Does anyone know if you have to set your "stride" in the fitbit? Because i've never been able to figure that out on past pedometers...

    You dont HAVE to - although the option is there if you want to. They use an average which I think is fairly accurate. I guess it depends on just how accurate you want it all to be.

    I just got my FitBit. I've been using it for 3 days. I have no idea how to set my stride and have no intention of trying to figure it out. I think it works just fine. I LOVE it!

    I'd love a fitbit or body bug, don't know which one though! X
