Seeking FITBIT MFP friends!
I use fitbit in combo with my fitness pal. I know plenty of other people do also. I desperately need a few more fitbit friends who average 60,000 + steps a week.

share your "staying on track" tips

One of my favorite snacks is a mix of cranberries, pumpkin seeds and almonds (I weigh them and bag them up myself.. 45 grams total for…
