Just got my Jawbone up yesterday and I need friends that use up also. I'm the only person I know that has one. I like it so far.

    I got mine on Tuesday this week; so far I think it is really cool. Just cannot get it to sync with myfitnesspal although it sounds like a common problem from what I see so far.

    I just got my UP yesterday. I am looking forward to getting the results from it and seeing how it syncs up with MFP. Feel free to add me as I do not know anyone with an UP and I think it would be great to challenge each other.

    Also, Happy mothers day!

    i've ordered mine and it's set to arrive on the 15 :) i'm so excited as i'll be able to track my activity- without LOOKING like a fitness fanatic, as it's discreet, unlike the nike fuelband or fitbit devices

    I got one this past week and love it. Glad you got one!

    And I'm always up for adding people, so anyone who's interested, just drop me a friend request.

    I don't sync mine with MFP though. Actually, I don't even know how. :)

    BTW, you can add team members on the UP app.

    Here at myfitnesspal.com, click the APPS tab at the top right. Jawbone UP is at the bottom of the page: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/apps/show/97
    The Up App instructions to connect to MFP are at https://jawbone.com/kb/articles/432.html#mp04

    Edited to add that should you ever wish to unlink MFP & Up, go back to http://www.myfitnesspal.com/apps/show/97 and click “Disconnect accounts” or follow the directions at https://jawbone.com/kb/articles/432.html#mp06

    I just synced mine for the heck of it. Took about 2 hours for the sync to come in. I think I read after the initial sync it's a 30 min delay.

    hey all, I am enjoying my UP. I have had it a week now and am enjoying seeing my steps. If I do not hit 100%, I end up going for an evening walk to make sure I get that 100%. Feel free to ad me to you team as I know no one with one. sstan03 at gmail dot com. that is a zero. So how is everyone else doing with their UP?

    I got my UP app and MFP to sync. This is what I did. I deleted UP from MFP and I deleted MFP from UP. I then went into MFP and added UP as an app first. Then I added MFP to the UP app. It works just fine both ways. Here is what I found out:
    Not every calorie you burn get transferred to MFP. You have to bust through about 5,000 steps to even have it show up. If you enable negative calories on MFP, then when you're low on steps for a day you will have less calories to spend...which was a great motivator for me!

    Add me on UP! and on here!

    I got the UP the day after MFP started syncing with them. Looks like they's worked out the kinks and I'm very happy with mine. The sleep monitor is an added bonus.
