    My fitbit arrived this morning. I'm amazed to find that I've walked over 7500 steps already!

    Just bought my fitbit charge. My user name is MoniLove00. I feel that the calories burned it totally off. How can I burn 800 calories in 15 minutes of a low intensity workout?? I'm kind of disappointed. Does anyone agree??

    Got my Charge on the first. Very addictive checking on progress...lol

    Same here, I've been wearing mine three days and constantly looking at the stats etc, especially my sleep pattern, didn't realise how restless I was in the night!

    Are you logging activity on the fitbit website app or my fitness pal or both? I've decided I'm not going to log anything about exercise anywhere, and just let the fitbit detect and record it automatically, because I find if I manually log it somewhere myself, then it doubles up and gets confused. Do you think this might've happened for you?

    it is probably counting the calories you burned since midnight. It calculates your calories burned based on your weight. You probably burn around 1800-2500 calories per day being sedentary depending on your current weight. Exercising amps up those numbers.

    I desperately needed my fitbit, I work a "sitting-job" so if I don't do the extra effort I don't even get to 2000 steps... terrible I know. But I do have dogs so this excludes dog walks ;)

    Now with the fitbit I push myself to get the 10000 steps a day and I have almost every day.

    I do log my excercise with other apps aswell, but I thought (at least it seemed that way) that the fitbit then just removes its own info and replaces it by the info from the external app. Not sure if it's true. Don't really care even, for me it was most important to just start moving more often. I would become bigger very soon if I didn't (terrible eating habbits, almost no activity) I needed someone or something to let me see just how bad I was doing :D so even if the steps aren't always accurate: I'm seeing improvement in the amount of time I am active and I eat less "bad" food.

    Next part is: the number on scale should change soon...

    My fitbit username is angiekje

    I have a Fitbit Charge HR and I would love to have some friends to do challenges with.... starting tomorrow. I put my Fitbit on to charge last night, woke up late, and ran out the door without it. I feel naked today!

    I have had the original Fitbit, the One (after washing my original one too many times), the Force, and back to the One when the Force was recalled. (After a brief stint with Jawbone UP 24). I am waiting for the Charge HR, I really prefer the wristband version so I don't forget to put it on when I change clothes, and I'm excited for the HR addition. So I'll add my profile here, I hope to be a Charge owner soon!! :)https://www.fitbit.com/user/226QQQ

    You might start snooping around...I know they say it won't be released until early 2015, but a few stores are getting the HR. It is limited stock and they sell out fast. I accidentally found one online at Dick's Sporting Goods. It is being shipped to my house as I type! Can you tell I am excited!?!

    Target has them on soft release but they sell fast!

    Been using mine since November 19th (http://www.fitbit.com/user/2Y7RWN) and I love it for recording my activity and sleep. I much prefer MFP for food logging. I am very glad they talk to one another!
