armflautist, let's become Fitbit friends. My fitbit name is crlady, I will send you a friend request from there. I am retired and live in Costa Rica. I'll be 74 later this month. Hope you are recovering nicely from the knee surgery. I had surgery in April. Sheilah

Guess I'd better tell you my name is crlady on Fitbit and crsheilah on here.

Hi all, it's been some time since I first posted on here. I notice the group is not very active (for posting). I'd like to issue a challenge to everyone in the group who is using a Fitbit. Let's become friends and challenge each other to increase our daily steps. Or just to encourage each other. My brother is now using a…

I don't see why you couldn't join Itssharon. I started using my Flex the last day of July and am loving it. I'm the kind who likes to keep track of things so it's not an ordeal for me to log my food, etc. BTW, I turned 73 last month and I'm an expat: moved from Maryland and now living in Costa Rica.

Thanks for all the encouragement. I will be crossing time zones, Florida is 2 hours ahead of Costa Rica and I was wondering about that. I guess it really doesn't matter though. I will be more active, lots of shopping. I always shop for clothes and bring back lots of Christmas presents for the family here in CR. I know…

I'd like to join, guess I already have, but I'm confused. I don't know where to find the information regarding the challenge. I noticed some people say they have started the intermediate challenge, etc. Where do I find this info? I live in Costa Rica on a mountain with no safe place to walk on a daily basis so I use Leslie…

I'll join also. I'm 73 (next month) and weigh 160. I always have trouble getting below the 160 mark! I'm 5'3" and hope to lose 6# by Halloween. I'd make that figure higher except I'm going on vacation for two weeks in September, LOL. My ultimate goal is to lose 25#.

I was taking metaformin for a while but quit as I was losing a lot of hair. I did some research online and found this to be a common side effect.
