    Hi all,
    Im Brenda - live in New Zealand so had to order my Fitbit from Amazon to get it delivered down here! I have just started using it today - SOO excited!
    I am supposed to be away on a "working holiday" by the seaside for a couple of days to concentrate on doing some computer programming- but every now and the I keep getting up and running around the motel room just to increase the step numbers! Cant help myself!!! Tho the neighbours would think it mighty odd if they looked in the window and saw a woman running around the motel room periodically looking down her bra!! Love the easy to view display - although I might need a different place to store it when I get back to the office!
    I think this afternoon I will have to take a break from working and go for a good walk on the beach :)

    I have had my fitbit for about a week. It is a fun thing that motivates me to take extra steps. I like that both sites are synced. I finally got over 10,000 steps yesterday. When my husband and I have been taking our walk at night I find a little more pep in my step and a desire to go a little further than the day before,

    My name is Jeanna I have been doing MFP for awhile but have only just recently become really motivated to work on myself. I got a fit bit to help and am doing 30DS along with eating right and within my calorie limits. I am always looking for new friends for encouragement and love to help motivate others.

  • Hi, my name is Torrin, I am 29 and closely approaching 30. I just bought a fit bit this week and im ready to use it to the fullest. I also joined MyFitnessPal because the first time i lost weight, I was about 25 and i was my own motivation. Thats not really the case anymore and could definitely use the help.

    Hi I am Andrea. I have been on MFP for a long time... even changed my user name. Weightloss and sticking with it is a struggle for me... like many. Anyway I just got a fit bit today so I am excited to see how it can help me keep track of my activity level and maybe make daily personal goals once I see what my daily routine is. Hopefully this board can help me figure it out! I want to use it with MFP.

    Hey all,
    Joined MFP in early January 2013 Just got my fitbit today. Then ended up doing two walks so logged tons of time, but can't make it show up in MFP? I am so confused. I am also excited and motivated by the fitbit. I logged 24,200 steps today - it won't happen again for a long time - but I hope to get 8,000 everyday. Any tips on getting MFP to recognize my fitbit?
    thanks,
    shawnerseliz

    Hi! Just started keeping track of things this past Monday and figured joining a group would help me stay accountable. I also started using my fitbit this past Monday. I'm loving it! It's already motivating me to get my butt moving. :)

    I'm a SAHM of a 3-year-old autistic boy. I've been married to the most incredible husband for almost 16 years. We live in NC and love it here (originally from IL).

    I'm excited to get started!
  • Hi! I just started using the fitbit One this week, I am looking for support / friends as I start my new beginning and to share with others. I only know one person that is using myfitnesspal.com and the fitbit. Today is my first day getting involved in joining a group. I'm excited!

    Hi, new to this group. I've had the fitbit charge since Wednesday. I started using it in the evening, today is Friday and since then I've lost 900g! I'm so happy and so impressed. I'm happy to add friends :)
