Motivation to exercise has been a problem to me for a long time.

Who would have thought a fit bit could help...

Someone mentioned a fit bit to me, didn’t pay much attention tbh, then a family member upgraded theirs and gave me this old one, around 4weeks ago...

Wow...for 4weeks I’ve completed 10,000 steps every day. It’s working for me.
I have symptoms of agoraphobia when in my own area, I’ve worked out times to go out when no one is around, and I have got on the bus a few stops to complete the steps elsewhere some days. I am in the zone of completing these steps ...can’t quite believe it’s me doing it :ohmy: alongside that I’m eating healthier, not exactly dieting, just being conscious and more healthy...

:yahoo: I hope I stay in this zone for a while...believe me some days I really do not wish to do it, although I know I’d be disappointed later on when the fit bit shows very little steps ..a couple of the days I’ve had to complete the steps at home, when I really couldn’t go out...not easy but I did it..
What suits one doesn’t suit all I understand, for me this is working ....just wanted to share with someone :yesyes:

That's amazing! It's hard to hit those 10,000 steps. I found myself walking in circles around my house at the end of the night trying to do it sometimes. Congratulations on a healthier lifestyle :)

Daughter gave me hers about 6 weeks ago after she upgraded , I struggle to do the 10000 a day at the moment about 7500-8000 with the odd 10000 day , they do motivate you I give my young dog an extra walk at night to clock up some extra , feels good when it buzzes at 10000 , got an all singing all dancing one on its way from China .
You're doing well :D

Thank you :) I’m still going strong with it, and actually have walked in some places I wouldn’t have ventured ,
Yes I had a bad day recently and tried to do the steps at home. I managed it but it’s hard ...x

Yes I’m still finding it very motivation. Thank you
It does feel good to hear the buzz.
I even went to a place a few stops on the train yesterday to walk around round and it was lovely 😊 x

Hi Velvet.

My daughter has one and keeps trying to persuade me into getting one as well but they are so expensive. She has been with Weight watchers for just over a year, and that coupled with the fit bit and determination has seen her drop around 3 or 4 dress sizes already.

I think its marvelous that yours has helped you to go out in the world, and I hope before long you can walk in the place that holds fear for you. But fantastically well done to you anyway. :yesyes:
