I am just hearing about the Aria scales. What is so great about them and do they work with the fitbit? LOL Sorry if I sound silly but this is all new to me.

Mine is currently sitting in dry rice. I am hoping it will be ok. I really loved the fitbit for the few days I got to use it. I will use a hairdryer and put it in my dash everything that might work. LOL

I've had mine for less then a week and I love it. Pros: Calorie, step and stair counter. I also really like the sleep counter. Cons: I washed mine last night. Not good for a FitBit. :( Mine is currently sitting in a bowl of dry rice and hopefully will survive but I have my doubts. If it doesn't survive I will buy a new one…

I have to say I really like the sleep tracker. Its weird to see all the info.

Thanks, I'm off to try and sleep. Have a good night everyone.

Wow thanks AC SL 3, I appreciate all the info. I am learning alot and I'm sure I will have more questions. I got the black/blue one... I'm surprised at how tiny it is. Please feel free to add me anyone and we can share questions and experiences.

gwennyh I am not sure were to go to find people on fitbit. Any help?

I just started and I think my diary is open to the public. In the next couple of days feel free to watch mine if you can see it, today it probably wont show anything because I just got it. I am also interested to see how it works.

Okay so I set it up on here also and I noticed that the food I have entered on MFP has transfered to fitbit.com. :love: I'm guessing that means its working. Yippee My first question is: Do I have to leave the base station plugged into the computer its set up to? I put it on my laptop. And if I don't does it have to be…

Mine is the Ultra, I just couldn't wait because I kept hearing so many good things about it. I will try not to wash it lol, no guarantees though. I'm sure I will have alot of questions when I get it. Its nice to know so many people really like theres.

Here we go!!! Starting weight is 191. I will be going out of town this weekend and wont be back until late Monday night. Can I post my weight Tuesday? I'm sure it will be horrible gonna be gone for 4-5 days. But I will do my best.

I also weigh daily but only count my Monday weigh in. And I try not to worry about my daily weight. But I've learned alot about my weight changing daily.

Its only 1 pound and could be any number of things. I wouldn't worry about it too much and stay focused. As for today its not over, eat something!

Thanks for posting this site. I just bought mine today and I'm sure I will need this help when it gets here. :tongue:

I would love to join as well. Feel free to add me I would love all the support. Starting Weight 191 Goal by 12/31 175 I am going to try to eat right around 1600 cal/day. I really need to work on my excersize and start getting some. I have been slacking at this so far.

Thanks I joined and will weigh in tomorrow morning. I like the accountability, hopefully it will help because I have a couple of trips planned during this time.

Try cooking more meals at home. When you have ice cream can you have skinny cow or Weight Watchers versions? Research the restaurants you go to before hand and try to pick healthy choices. And Plan ahead, My husband is pretty supportive and eats what I cook for the most part. Occasionally however he wants special things.…

I would love to join! I need all the encouragement I can get. Add me please

Awesome! That is actually one of the trips I have planned, in Nov. a 7 day cruise. Although we will be gone about 9 days I believe. But if I can get most of the info that would be great. And I guess I could always take my computer but then I might be tempted to work, and I can't have any of that. LOL Thanks for all your…

Thank you. It seems like everyone really likes them.

If I take the charger does it go longer? Or is it a weeks worth of memory that it will hold? I have a bid on ebay and hopefully I will own my own soon.

I am also considering buying one of these. I was wondering if you are away from your computer for days, how long will it track? Like if you go away for the weekend or on vacation. How long will it hold the information?

I have been losing while on birth control, haven't noticed a problem. I have heard people say that it slows down weight loss and some people gain weight while on the pill. Everyone is different, but I believe if you eat well and excersize you should be able to lose.

I also agree that when you eat doesn't matter. Its what you eat and how many calories per day. I like to save alot of my calories for dinner and evening snacking. I don't like going to bed hungry and this just works better for me. If something works I see no reason to change it. However, if your feeling full is not a good…

I agree with this. I have been eating anywhere between 1400- 1700 regularly with occasional days over that. I'm 5'7" and weigh 191. This seems to be working for me. If I'm hungry I will eat and if not I wont. I try not to beat myself up over it too much. But I make sure I eat enough.

Awesome Job! Congrats! I would say thats a bit more then a small victory.

Thank you for sharing. I am slowly learning alot of what was discussed on your post. So to read that other people struggle with it have gotten thru it this way helps me. I haven't read the links yet but I will be. Thanks again.

I weigh in most days, but only log my weight on Mondays. Well except for this Monday because I went crazy over the weekend, so next Monday I will log. Hopefully that will be a bit more accurate.

I had oatmeal for lunch today. Its yummy, healthy and you can add fruit, nuts, peanut butter etc. So many different options. Enjoy

I forgot about these. I'm a chocoholic and used to keep a bag in my freezer. I eat them slower when they are frozen. I need to get some for chocolate emergencies. Thanks
