Hi everyone I am 5 ft and 260lbs. I am in desperate need of motivation. I got a Fitbit blaze but I don't have any friends to challenge me or motivate me to move. I am looking for friends that are just starting to get off the couch like me. On average I hit about 3000 steps yes I know I'm basically dead. The highest is 8000 so far. Please add me mercedes3106@aol.com

    Hi I have a fitbit I do try to get 10 000 steps a day but average anywhere between 6000 and on a very good day 12000. If you want support I'm happy to do this with you I could use the motivation to get moving.

    I'm 5 ft as well. 175 ish pounds. I have a fitbit charge. I was getting over 10k steps a day with working out 30 minutes in the morning but sprained my ankle recently. 30 min on the elliptical in the morning helped me reach my 10 k daily. Just remember 10k steps is about 500 calories burned so it's work it. I think her name is leslie sansome or sansone has a walking dvd you could use to get started!
