New Year New Goals...after 40 days of Facebook Fasting... I have now decided to continue with 40 Days with Fitbit. So here goes... On December 31,2012 I became the proud owner of the new Fitbit Aria... At first is just seemed like a cute little scale that says hello...step on... get's your weight and says step off... So with that I signed up... great $129.00 investment. It has a place to log the food, water, etc...I am not a fitness guru at all.. and keeping me engaged is tricky at best. Joined a number of health clubs, MLM healthcare groups(that sell products), etc...and the reality is those are fine and might work for some but I am just an ordinary person making a change and really want to own it... So I am going to blog how I am doing and hope that it might encourage anyone to try with me...
So on the go with Stephie Jo literally... I have had the scale a week and when you are going with the mindset of just becoming healthy...and log your food...it can be interesting to see just how much my love for Mexican food can sabotage my weight... :)
Logging the food the first week was scary...most days I am taking in at least 900 calories more than I should if I am going to loose weight... so not wanting to make it too hard I set my weight loss for easy plan... You have different levels... There is an interesting place to log your moods...and now I am beginning to wonder if the type of food, beverage I consume really does challenge your emotions...:)
There is a neat little body that fills up with water as you log your water...this is great for the visually inspired person that I am... (it's the little things that make me happy).
Saturday January 5th...Erick Roy and I invested in two Fitbit One Trackers... and these little gadgets are amazing...they track your steps, your stairs, your sleep, your calories burned your water... I am sure I am missing something but when you are tracking things...it is amazing how quickly this engages you to challenge yourself and change your habits. Just think... I have stairs that I have to walk up everyday...now it is going to count them... when I am walking into the clients office ...it is going to count those too...
Here is a copy of my first night of sleep log...very interesting...

Week one lost 5 lbs... and they sent me a little email saying congratulations...this is pretty fun...:) So here is to day One of having fun with some little changes... :)
