wow! i wish i would've known years ago how good it would feel to walk!  it is just fantastic.  and using the FitBit helps keep me motivated, I have to admit.  since i'm not taking measurements or weighing in, it gives me a goal to strive for…more steps today than yesterday.  Today we have 3 kinds of snow: snow, blowing snow, and very cold blowing snow.  I might get out for a jaunt by myself anyway.  too cold for my dog! 2 days ago, i got a FitBit award for Most Active Minutes in a day so far!  very excited.
