Good luck with your challenge....Myself I set on to lose 2 stones from Jan 1st to April 23rd (my Birthday and time we are going on Holiday) 24lbs in 16 weeks seemed possible according to the statistics......well for the first 7 weeks my scale moved 4 lbs :( I was logging correctly and weighing food etc.....but I knew my…

Hello welcome to the world of more data...lol, had mine just over a week now, so getting used to it.... Ignore the first day at least, maybe 2....mine was very high first fill day.....still is high IMO......once you sync with MFP, (goto apps in MFP and add FB tracker) sync the 2, then you will need to sync up for the info…

Thank god for that.........thought I had an old version or something....lol Press the left button (only button) keep it pressed you will feel it vibrate, this is it starting off in exercise mode, do same again to stop it once finished.....the FB will log that time as an exercise....

Both side buttons? On a charge hr? I got mine last Friday. Only 1 button on side.??? Mine lasts 3 days at least. And is all working great. Am I missing a button though? Lol

I am currently on day 27 with no alcohol.......last day tomorrow, 2 beers be on my *kitten* I hope....lol.....Good luck.....Will tell you how I feel after I have a drink tomorrow night...lol

good luck..

I too got a new HR last week, wanted to track my daily usage more at work, and general day to day stuff.....everyone I know says it is giving me back a lot of cals to eat in a day for my activity.......I have not eaten any where near what the FB has said this last week......I am well over 500 cals under my FB / MFP goal…

I too have been losing inches but not weight, for 7 weeks.....I have lots to lose too.....I am 244lbs, started at 251 nearly 8 weeks ago.....for weeks I have stayed around the 247 /248 mark, but I know I have lost from my belly, and face and other places.....so I am not worried about the scales....just wish I had measured…

Mine is working fine....had no issues at all this week...

This is how it sat best in my ankle, I had a strap from and old camera or phone of something, that will take the strap end, and allow me to wrap round my ankle so it is secure....then my sock over too.....or just tie the 2 ends round your ankle and put a bandage or sweatband over it, to try..... I still get high eat back…

Cheeky B****** :wink: 3 yrs in it.....I was born AFTER decimalisation too you know...lol

I bought the Charge HR last week and all my lit says it is splash proof only, you cant shower with it.....you can the surge I THINK............check that out first.....but deffo not with the HR...

I work 4 nights a week every week and I have set my diary up to show certain times of a night / day I mainly eat, I turn myself back normal on a weekend, so my eating pattern is all over the place....tracking accurately really does help.... For snacking, I work in a chocolate factory, so I know about snacking....lol one…

you link it through MFP..... in MFP go to the apps page and you will see fitbit tracker.......that then syncs them up.....this is how I did mine on Saturday....hope this helps...

It is working fine on my ankle TBH, gets a HR no issues, tried it overnight last night, my sleep / HR seems similar to night before too, so it looks like all good on the ankle.... Find I have less steps too as it does not get my arm movements (I do talk a lot with my hands too) so I personally think I may wear it here 24/7…

I second that big time......Really Psses me off when you see the yanks in there comments saying had a bad day today, missed my goals (they ate twice there daily bloody goal) and all the likes and wooop woops and shite.....when you want to grab hold, *kitten* slap them tell em to get a grip and stop feeling sorry for…

Spot on for me this ^^^^ Sorry to be a Yorkshireman....(say it as I see it) but....... If you really are at a stage in life where you really want to lose the weight and you find that MFP helps (for me it is the only thing that has helped me lose weight) then you will find the time to log, CICO is the sole purpose of MFP so…

Agreed, but I find having others with the same goals and being able to look at there diary and exercise etc and just give any motivation needed really helps me to stay motivated too, gotta lose weight with all these people on here watching you I say....

Lol - Bit drastic just to use mt FB don't you think......+ I get to work with chocolate and toffee alllll night.....( I work in a sweet factory )

Thanks. Yes I weigh food and log as accurately as I can. I even log butter and ketchup. I will wait a week or 2 yet with the fb then adjust according to that. The last 4 weeks of food logging is very accurate.

1850 is my MFP goal with 2lbs loss set...

wanna talk about spreadsheets.....read this... http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10084832/how-obsessed-have-you-become-over-this#latest ..lol......trust me I am tracking everything accurately, I too am a data geek, you cant get true readings from false data...hence the Fitbit...... I do not exercise that…

I have just purchased a Fitbit HR so I can collect more data..........More spreadsheets to follow..... :p

Not sure if I am doing it right, but here is my view.....please tell me if I am very wrong....new user also.... I got my HR last week, and changed nothing in MFP, but I did sync them together.....anyways on Sat I did some work round the house, usual pottering stuff......did 6500 steps, my "cash back" was 1800…

very interesting peeps....got my FB HR on Friday and the Saturdays goal was far too high, said I could eat 1800 cals for 6500 steps.....I was set at light active before I got my FB, I work in manufacturing and can spend a lot of time on my feet, but at the moment I am in the office so did light to be on safe…

Hello all, got my HR on Fri, and love it so far.....the first day confused me and others, did usual pottering around house Sat morning, total 6500 steps told me to eat 1800 cals back.....far too much...I want to lose weight not double up...lol....anyways at work today I did 6500 again and got 600 back....so better I…

I bought my FB HR on Friday and too have an issue with wearing it at work.....I tried it on my ankle at the weekend and it works better than on my arm.....seems to overestimate on my arm...... To fit it to my wrist I added something to the strap, so I could strap it all way round my ankle, then I put my sock over that, I…

Are you in yet??? Its in the community page in your FB..but not much action in there TBH, better off staying here.....just got mine too on Friday....still figuring it out...

Morning all, got my Fitbit Charge HR yesterday, please feel free to add me, I am a fat unhealthy 41 yr old bloke from UK trying to lose a life time of neglect.......(or 30lbs at least first goal to you and me....) Good luck all https://www.fitbit.com/user/37ZN8H
