2 Runs down

[Fat2FitBride2B]

After starting running again, I feel like I have more energy. This week I’ve been mega determined to lose weight (my heart is in it this time!) I just have never been this big and it’s impacting my life in such a negative way. I bought a fit bit to motivate me which it has. I’m hoping to do 3 runs minimum per week and 2 HIIT home workouts in between hopefully that will kick start my weight loss.

Currently weigh 14.3lb hoping to lose 2 stone by May any more would be fab!

Hey I have a fit bit but it's not really motivating me much. How does it motivate you?

Also well done!! And good luck

It tells me if I’ve reached my step goal each hour so it motivates me to move more I guess and as it’s a new toy I’m trying to use all the apps and things I’ve got the C25K app on it and It has been helping me out running as it’s been keeping me on track more.

Thanks for the tips, I'll try them out when I get back home, on holiday at the moment so just taking it easy for now

Hello and welcome forwardeffect 😊

My activity tracker buzzes if I haven’t moved after an hour which also helps 😊

Hey,

Thanks, yeah I think I had that too but I got into a bad habit of ignoring it which doesn't help but I'll try to get back into it when I get back home after my holiday 😊

My Fitbit motivates me by the adding of friends and as we all are a competitive lot we all want to be top of the leaderboard by the end of the week .

[forwardeffect in reply to Hidden]

That's cool, is it done through Facebook?

[Hidden in reply to forwardeffect]

No you do it through your Fitbit app.

[forwardeffect in reply to Hidden]

Oh cool, could I add you?
