The FastDay Forum

I'm in for some improvement @tbrewton. Remember all, if you don't want to increase your step count, you can aim for more active minutes, or put that treadmill on an incline and get more stairs (does that work?).

I think fatcat89 was saying you could add her as a friend to your personal FitBit. I thought she was already in the group...hard to tell sometimes since the names and/or avatars are different.

I'm a dinosaur...now who wants to be an dinosaur...the unicorn is much more appealing

I like my Unicom, but your dinosaur says that you've gone miles further than me. Yipeeee.
And, yes there are loads of us on there now. Whatever happened to Mario or Rocco or whatever his name was.

My FitBit One arrived today! Wahoo! Loving the little thing so far.

Looking forward to seeing how my day goes tomorrow, then will adjust targets. I think I tend to walk quite a lot at work, but I may be surprised at how little I do!

Will try find the 5:2 group on fitbit but still finding my way around

Did you still want to join the group, I've replied to your message from today 17th

I unintentially upset him by asking him to chat here instead of the FitBit site:(

Ahh, I see now FatCat89 is looking for us. Yes, is she PMs her email address to any of us, there is a prompt on the bottom left of the leaderboard to invite someone...

Thanks Carrie

Mine was a squid. I would like to post a pic but have forgotten how!

[Tracieknits]

I got a blowfish - LMAO!

Me, too, Tracieknits!!!

I think I've joined the group 5:2 Fitbitters? Is this the right one? Sorry, I haven't quite got how this works yet

@carieoates I will PM you my email address

I got a frog lol

Hey Fatcat - not sure if you are on there or not. Are you using a different name? Do you see me?

and holy moly - my huge behind and I somehow broke in to the top 10! Someone's slacking here LOL

Welcome pilchard to our group. I've sent you an invite:)

I'm on FitBit as Laura :\ not sure if I can see you on there.

Also, is there a way of removing "excess" steps? I wore my fitbit horse riding today and it's given me faaar too much credit!

Laura, you are not on our group yet. I sent you a pm on here but your settings show that you don't have PM's enabled. If you sent me or any other member, from this thread an email with your home email address on we can invite you on. There are about 40 of us on there and you'll know it's us as we tend to use the same tag name to make it easier. Which you can change easily in your profile settings.

If you go online to fitbit.com, at the top of the page is a "Dashboard ... Log ..." hyperlinks and if you hit "Log" and then "Activities" you can manually input an activity such as "horseback riding" and give what you think was a reasonable amount of calories for that activity. I think they'll either zero out your steps or give you the equivalent number of steps to the amount of calories you estimated.

Edit: Just make sure you correctly enter the date/time of the activity to coincide with the "extra credit steps" you want to over-write.

Well @carieoates I have just ended on Sunday night by over taking you on the 7 day leader board... Although you probably have all of Sunday ahead of you I will claim the small victory lol...

Although next week I'm doomed as I am traveling all week with work so loads of meetings and sitting down and driving
