breath....... It will calculate calories based on your weight, height, etc. Steps they say should be set at 10000 - charge it and then clip it on and go. You can mess with the web site at any time.

Got and approved your request!

Lynn,
When we go walking, how do you track the distance and steps just for that walk?? Do you reset it just before your walk or put it in sleep mode??? I can't find any instructions on that.

Yup, just like when you use sleep mode you can do the same to track specific events during the day. At the start of your walk push and hold the button until the bit says start - at the end of your walk push and hold till it says stop.

It still calculates that time into your daily activity but you can also go on the web and see just that specific time so you know how much exercise you got during your walk.

Karrie is still waiting for hers and was wondering if you remember what date you placed your order?

for shakes it would be instant pudding mix - helps to thicken them up. Enjoy!

Thank u so much. going to buy the stuff now and was so confused!! Also is the button on your fitbit very stiff, hard to press? Mine is and I'm wondering if I send it back. Sometimes the info doesn't come up and I have to keep pushing till it finally does. Doesn't seem right.
