Walk with me, info on Fitbit and water-coffee talk

[shinypinkpo1ish]

This looks really cool!

[CandiisSweetEnough]

I am enjoying my Fitbit. Now my husband wants one. I made sure I got the plum one so that if he did get one we could tell our apart! You come up with some very interesting combinations on your syrups! Love that!

[MsMerry]

@texasmom2011 Robin, I got my FitBit today !!!! How do I add you, or you can add me. Merry_Joy

[texasmom2011]

@MsMerry Awesome...woo hoo

[JourneyNewLife]

Robin, Let me recommend this clothing to you. I get really cold in the winter and now that I'm post-op, I'm sure I will be cold in the fall and spring too. The item is called cuddle duds. bought mine at JCPenney. They are like thin thermals and the extra skim of clothing under my regular clothing makes me feel cozy ALL day long. So worth it!

[texasmom2011]

@JourneyNewLife Thanks....I'll check it out. Not sure if they will carry in the stores down here...but I bet I can find online for sure.

[nurseynurse29]

Also I strongly believe in lots of water!! I am a coffee person so I have caffeinated coffee in am and decaf in afternoons or eves. I love the sugar free syrups!! Yummy and like having a treat!

[texasmom2011]

@nurseynurse29 Thanks Lisa....I've cut back on my SF syrups....and controling my coffee for sure. Other than that I drink water

[nurseynurse29]

Wow that fit it is cool!! I totally want one! I think it is hard when you have a sedentary job, you gotta get your heart pumpin' and make it rain!!!! I so wish we lived closer and we could run/walk together!! I am loving my treadmill at home, doesn't matter what the weather is!! And I so relate to getting cold all the time!! So weird I use to always be hot natured!! Thank you for sharing!!

[texasmom2011]

@nurseynurse29 Oh you will love the fibit.....I've been telling everyone about it. I wished we lived closer too.

[texasmom2011]

[PinkFishLilly]

Thanks for the video, Robin - I'm going to PM you and get your email address. I have made a seperate group on Fitbit.com for WLS people - Keith (Piercedcub23) also has a fitbit and it would be fun if we put together a little group of support. Love Janine

[texasmom2011]

@PinkFishLilly I got it....thanks for the invite.

[MsMerry]

O.K., you sold me, I've been thinking about getting the FitBit. Thanks so much for showing how it works. I'm going to stop by Best Buys on the way home from work tomorrow and get one. Can't wait

[texasmom2011]

@MsMerry Yippy....another friend I can add to my friends list on the fit bit site....woo hoo.

[MsMerry]

@texasmom2011 I could cry. I went to Best Buys tonight to get the Fit Bit, they didn't have any, their computer said they had two, but they didn't know where they are. They said I could order it online and pick it up or have it mailed ;-( I really wanted it NOW ..

[VSG4Lyn2011]

I'm so getting one of those Fitbits!! Thanks for sharing. I think in my head that I'm up moving at work, at home and always out shopping, but I'm super curious to see what I'm really burning. :)

[texasmom2011]

@VSG4Lyn2011 It's amazing how much it shows that I "DON"T" do....You will love it.

[AmalCPhT]

I've heard great things about the fitbit. Glad you're liking it!

[texasmom2011]

@AmalCPhT Hugs Sweetie.

[lapband23]

With all the hot flashes I get these days I could never be cold. I get joint pains related to menapause and I find the days I run it improves. WLS can only do so much for wt loss. We menopausal woman NEED to do regular cardio exercise and wt bearing exercise to prevent bone loss and osteoporosis. It is not just about wt loss it's about creating and maintaining healthy bodies! Everyday I see patients, woman, around age of 55-65 with weak, useless bodies due to neglect, I hate to see that.

[texasmom2011]

@lapband23 I so agree Andrea. I now I'm getting weaker as I age.  So onward I push myself....I just wish it would come natural to me, like it does for you and so many others.....I really have to work at working out.

[losetobemeagain]

There should be a 20.00 coupon out there on the internet for 24 hr fitness if anyone is looking for one.

[losetobemeagain]

I love my fitbit... I lost the first one and just got my second one last week, I couldn't live without it. I noticed that without the fitbit I slacked off alot. It really does make you accountable. Oh yea and I love the banana syrup too.

[texasmom2011]

@losetobemeagain I'm finding I really love mine too. Oh isn't the banana delish? LOL

[BandedSusan]

I really love the Fitbit. I'm going to Best Buy tomorrow to get one! Thanks for the tutorial!! xoxoxox Susan

[texasmom2011]

@BandedSusan Cool Susan...when you join shoot me a PM with your name on fit bit and we can be friends... :-) Or it will let you find friends from FB and add them too. ;-)

[marthkashrinks]

That looks great. Glad to see you walking, too. Nice hat! I need knitting tips from connie.

[texasmom2011]

@marthkashrinks Thank Martha May. :-) I really need to get back into the game.

[mdexperience2011]

I totally want to get a fitbit. That is going to be my Onederland reward for myself. I know Heather (punkielynn) has one and loves it! I do the same thing working from home. I'm home 3 days a week and then in the office twice a week. When I'm home it is difficult to get up and around when working from home.

[texasmom2011]

@mdexperience2011 Awesome Monica....it won't be long and you will have yours...woo hoo.

[bandedbird2011]

Is the online feature free? I want one of those!!!!

[texasmom2011]

@bandedbird2011 Yes the basic online feature is free. There is a premium feature you can buy, but they let you test it out first to see if you want it. But I'm fine with what it comes with for now.

[bandedbird2011]

You and me both. I have been doing the treadmill & aerobics like crazy inside, so it was so nice to take my toddler on our 2 mile walk. Good to see you out there. I will get my Torani Bar up and going one day. lol I would love to try blueberry with chobani yogurt with some S.F. cheesecake pudding mix. Blue berry cheesecake yum! Seen the idea earlier on FB
