Hi, I started last year (1/1/2017) with 100+ pd monkey. With following low carb, I shed 50 by the end of the year. So 2018, I vowed to myself to lose the last 50 but I really needing to start moving too. I joined Dietbet and just finished & won my 4 wk challenge, losing 11.2. I also incorporated walking into my daily life.
I am signing up for 2nd challenge, but boy the last two days I slacked off and only logged 2,000 steps each day and lazy food wise. I feel it in my system and legs. Don’t like it....ready to jump back in.

My wife got me into using a FitBit to track my steps. At first it seemed I wasn't making much progress. As time went on, I became more conscious of how my behavior affected my steps, and I saw my daily totals start to rise. I then bumped up my daily target to challenge myself to increase my steps and it worked. Now I do weekly challenges with other people and it pushes me even more. Keep up the good work and you will see progress.
