  4. Good to know. I have some papaya tabs I got at GNC. Bought to aid in digestion bc a friend told me they helped her. I haven't taken tho.

  9. Happy to report it's going better. Maybe the fitbit had to sync with me. Lol
  10. I agree. I'm doing SO much better since I started logging my food and activity on my fitness pal. It is great for awareness and motivation.
  11. Thanks a mil. It has gone a lot better today. I've gotten over 10 tho steps. I got in a 3.5 mile walk this morn but also I've been "spring cleaning" all day and so on my feet most if it. I'm very satisfied with how it has synced today. It is quite the motivator. I agree!!!!

  13. Thanks kitt. I'm really trying to understand it. And it is clipped to my bra. Maybe I will try moving it but honestly thst is the most convenient place. Do u wear yours all day? I did a big walk this morning and am now cleaning house. I'm curious as to how it's gonna all play out at the end of the day. Thanks for the help. I'm gonna keep trying it out.

  15. For example. I just walked 3.5 mikes at a moderate 3.3 pace and it only gave me 152 calories for it on MFP. That cannot be right. Fitbit site says I burned 857 cals on thst walk. So why does MFP only recognize it as 152?
  16. I am trying to get used to it. It is syncing with MFP but it doesn't give me the credit (it seems) for the calories I burned. Not as much as I think it should. And then MFP doesn't put on my news feed thst I exercises at all, like it did when I manually logged exercise with my pedometer. Or like it does when I use map my fitness. I have to admit I like the posting of my exercise and the accolades, thumbs up from others. So it is disappointing thst it doesn't show up. Idk. Then yesterdsy when I manually logged 30 min of house cleaning, gardening like u can do on MFP it took away the fitbit calories burned altogether. Ack. For me, has been a bit frustrating.

  18. I did get a fitbit but am not sure it is working for me the way I wanted it to or thought it would. It is great for recording to (syncing) to the fitbit site. I'm confused about how it syncs with MFP, which is what I wanted it for. Quite frankly I'm pretty frustrated. But I'm gonna give it more time. I've only had it 2 days. There are many things I like about it.

  21. Feeling disappointed. The fitbit is not syncing right with mfp. I am frustrated. :-( (and trying not to eat over it)
  22. I purchased a fitbit one today. I like it so far, but I am not sure I have synced with mfp. Which is the biggest reason I wanted it. Hmmm...will try it for a few days more and see how it goes. I really want it to work they way I have heard it does. :-)

  24. I just joined the fitbit group. Not a sleeve gal, lapband tho. But I just picked up a fitbit today. Hope it works for me.
  25. I just bought the fitbit one today. Excited about it. If anyone wants to add me as a friend, my email for it is dllb372@gmail.com. Still learning about it. Gonna give it a try tonight.
  26. Does anyone have this? I just bought today at Academy Sports. I was kinda looking for a fitbit or something pretty close. This says it is supposed to sync with mapmyfitness app or walkmyfitness...but I can't seem to get it to. Just curious if anyone has one of these. It was a lot less than fitbit. About $39.99. They did not have the fitbit so I thought I'd try this. I am anxious for something that will sync automatically; for ease and simplicity. Have you heard of it or used it? Thanks!
  27. Excellent idea! Which usually works. But, and a big one, I stupidly brought home marshmallows thst were left over from a church event thinking I'd be ok with them in the house. I'm not ok with them in the house. They went into the sugar free hot chocolate and also in my hands and in my mouth. Too many times. Ack! I just can't be trusted when it comes to sugar. If I doubted it before I know it now. Feeling very thankful I have somewhere to be the real self with. Thanks!
