Thanks for the reply. Will your phone will sync with the fitbit itself once you turn on the blue tooth? I have the app on my current phone but it only shows the info from the last time I was close enough to my laptop to sync. :grumble:

Don't worry - everyone has been a newb at one time or another! Just last night I had to get a trainer to show where to put some plates that someone left on a machine. It felt like a really dumb question since I was obviously getting ready to use the thing, but he was happy to help & quite apologetic that it gets "so messy"…

Workout over: So: (At least until the Little Man wakes from his nap...)

She could look into local groups in her community - seniors groups and the Diabetes Association come to mind. In my area the grocery stores have community rooms where they hold cooking classes a few times a month. Look around the town, check out flyers and bulletin boards. Nutrition and cooking classes are popping up…

I second this. There's a reason why intro running programs give you rest days between runs. You need to give your muscles and joints a chance to recover from the impact of running. It's hard to "just take a day off", I know, but you make progress when you allow your muscles a chance to repair and regroup for the next run.…

The part in bold is my favourite. I feel the same way!

Do you like to cook? My husband couldn't stand most vegetables until he started cooking them himself. The idea of sitting down and eating a side of steamed veggies still doesn't really appeal to him, but he's actually at the point that he enjoys them as part of a complete meal - like a stir fry, stew, roasted with other…

That is wonderful! Congrats!

That's great news! I don't really have an update, but it's not a problem on the fitbit end of things. My flex was a Christmas gift so I'm trying to track down a receipt. By the sounds of it, they're going to replace mine once I get that info. :smile: In the meantime, decided to disable negative adjustments on mfp because I…

I've been using the Fitbit Flex since Christmas and love it. At first the info itself was nice, linking it to mfp was better, but it really hit home for me when I finally gave up a bit of control and clicked that little check box to allow for negative adjustments. Two tips: 1. This group full of very knowledgeable &…

Sounds familiar. From small town, NB to Saint John, NB; then Truro, NS; St. John's, NL; currently Sackville, NS & planning to stay awhile.

This! I log what I eat, most days I stay within my targets for the day. Going over for the day doesn't mean I'm off the wagon, it means I was likely under the day before or that I plan to balance it out later in the week. Or...[gasp] I was just hungry. Life happens. I don't need a hall monitor peering over my shoulder…

This is exactly what I want to be able to do. I want to be stronger so I can run, jump, climb & play. I absolutely LOVE the agility ladder. It is so much fun! Thank you so much for this perfectly timed post & for sharing the details of your program. I have been researching both heavy lifting & body weight training for a…

Me too! I actually just used the same words on mine that I posted the day I finished the run. Makes sense to me, but I'm not sure it would have the same meaning to anyone else, unfortunately.

I finally heard from Fitbit this afternoon. Their response could have been copied/pasted from their website: Make sure it's fully charged to 5 lights (up to 3 hours), check the phone/website dashboard for progress instead of tapping the bracelet all the time and make sure the contacts are cleaned. I replied to tell them…

@TriLifter, I'm still waiting to hear from fitbit, but I didn't really expect a reply today. It's reassuring to hear that they have such a great reputation for customer service. @sarahelizaaaa, I haven't tried a reset, I'll look into that now. Thanks for the tip!

YAY! I just saw them - nice work! :flowerforyou:
-
Arewethereyet - they both look fantastic! The beach one is my favourite because, although I'm not there yet, I fell in love with the beach this summer for the first time since I was a kid. Playing in the waves... building sandcastles with my little boy... :love: So fun!

This photo was taken after I finished a really fun run a few weeks ago. It was overcast when I started down my favourite trail but after 10-15 minutes the sky opened up and dropped what felt like a full day's worth of rain on my head. In less than two minutes I was completely soaked and too far away from the car to bother…

Congrats!!! Looking forward to an update in the fitspiration thread!
-
Great info. Thanks!
-
I'll add another vote for the shock absorber bra as well. I've been wearing the multisport for a few years and the only time anything bounces around is when I need to go down a size. I'm currently a 38F and I only have to wear the one bra. Good luck!…

Do you remember starting the app in the morning or was it running in the background? I had it happen when I continued to log using a tab that I left open on my computer the night before. It was frustrating to go back to zero from about 45 days logged even though I clearly been on the site the day before. I wish I knew that…
-
Great idea! Thank you.
-
Congratulations - what a great NSV!! I love that even as you're celebrating this win, you've already set your sights higher. Keep up the great work & congrats again. (I also love the dragon pic in your ticker... :smile: )

Don't worry about it, there's nothing wrong with asking your question. It's just a little hard to answer because the c25k training program is so popular that it has multiple apps & pod casts dedicated to it. Do you know who created yours? It must be in the app info somewhere. If not, perhaps you can take a screen shot to…

I think it's great that you guys are working out during tv time! If you don't do commercial breaks, you could always search pinterest for workouts tailored to your favorite shows. These routines get you to do a certain set of exercises when a character does or says something specific.. It's usually a trademark line or move…

I've been half-halfheartedly tracking my walking distance along Bilbo's journey to the Lonely Mountain. (I'm almost through "Day 84" http://home.insightbb.com/~eowynchallenge/Tools/Lonely_Mountain/lonely_mountain.html) Now, you have me considering tracking my runs against one of these timelines...

When I logged in this morning I was met with that joyful "SkyeNS has logged in for 470 days in a row!" message. During that time I gradually made changes to my diet and greatly increased my daily activity. For the most part I'm a very proud tortoise. I try very hard to take all the ups, downs & plateaus in stride, often…
