  • for me personally, due to health issues, walking is pretty much the only exercise I can do, so yes I enter it. 2 miles is a long way (for me, I can only do about 1 mile at a time, on a good day). You don't necessarily have to eat back those calories, you could add them to your deficit to lose a little more quickly, and…

  • Definitely go to the doctor. Could be many things, some minor, some major, depending on the amount of swelling, one leg or both legs, etc. I had one leg only swell and it was a simple burst Baker's cyst. My daughter has CHF and is supposed to notify her doc of any weight gain over 5 pounds in less than a week - both her…

  • To keep from losing the smaller ones, clip it onto your pocket, with the fitbit inside the pocket and the stem on the outside. That way if it falls, it will fall in the pocket.

Just because that is the limit of what my body can handle at that moment, doesn't mean it isn't exercise for my body. I am starting with the 10, 20, 30 minutes walking and hopefully over time I can build up to more. But I am…
