Added you both to my list of friends ???? .

Please note that for all fitbit users, challenges are limited to first 10 people who accept and we are limited to taking up 5 challenges at any one time. Don't be afraid to take up a challenge or create one as every level of fitness is generally invited from what I've seen from my list of friends.

We are here to motivate and help one another ????. Please do not be afraid to ask for advice if you need it as some if us are beginners, some if us are well advanced into the fitness regime a d more than willing to help where we can ???? as you can message one another through the application itself ????

How do you accept the challenge? Someone on my friends list challenged and when I went to go in the app to accept it, it didn't say.

@@smiranda in the application there is a "star" on the bottom of the app next to the Dashboard button. That is where all the Challenges are. If one has been sent out to you amongst a number of people, you just select it and then accept the challenge, please bare in mind that if more than 10 people have been invited to that same challenge, only the first 10 that accept the challenge will actually be eligible to join that specific challenge, so in essence you have got to be quick to join in as everyone is very keen :D.

please note that there is nothing stopping you from starting up a challenge yourself and then inviting your friends :) that way you will always get in ;)

I'm 6 months out of my bypass, and I lost 75lbs, now finally have energy to work out, but after couple days I'm getting very tired and sore, should I slow down or push it?

I personally wouldn't push it. Take it easy as its not a race as to who gets to the finish line first. Give yourself realistic goals that will stretch you but not to the point where you are in pain. Every other day or even other week, move that target a little further. Just go at a pace where its comfortable for you.

Hi all, anyone else here having problems joining challenges since the latest update? I was in 3 challenges and therefore i had 2 more i could join however i keep getting an alert stating that i cant join more than 5 at any one time and then it doesn't allow me to join. There is a thread open over at the fitbit forums about this issue and the developers are looking into this.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
