Waiting for my Fitbit

Just ordered a Fitbit one and have a good idea that it will turn into a dailey competition trying to beat yesterday's walking steps. Have others that have them find this is so? Sounds like a good thing. Still hitting the gym 6 days a week and have recentley started walking to work which is 20 min. each way. Looking forward to see how the steps add up

    I don't try to beat my best every day but when time permits I try to beat my all time best. This weekend I beat my all-time best of 15000 in a day with 17000 and did it without intended exercise just all yardwork + normal daily activity.

    Since getting my fitbit I've racked up almost 700,000 steps.

    I love my fitbit! It makes me move so much more! I love reaching new goals and getting badges! I'm sure you will too find it a very useful tool!

    When I first got my FitBit I was challenging myself to get higher steps, floors and badges. I've walked over 750km and climbed 2000 floors. I don't really challenge myself anymore, but I still love my FitBit. I don't know what I'd do without it!
