10 Things Every Fitbit Addict Says

If you have a Fitbit you have definitely said one, two or all of these phrases before.

1. “How many steps do you have?"

This is a common question for all those competitive and curious Fitbit users. It makes sense why everyone seems to ask this question because what is better than asking your friend how many steps they have and finding out you are beating them?

2. "Sync your steps”

While in any challenge with your friends, family or coworkers, you constantly ask them to sync their steps because you NEED to know if you are still in the lead and if you are not … it is time for some walking! But what is worse than that friend who does not sync their steps until the last day and they pass you out of nowhere?


3. "I’m going to beat you in the *insert Fitbit challenge here*"

If you are competing in the Workweek Hustle, Weekend Warrior or even the Daily Showdown, you are not going to accept their challenge request unless you know you are going to win. I think we are all guilty of walking in circles around your house or pacing just to pass people in the challenge.



4. "Ugh! I have no steps today.”

The saddest moment of all time - when you check your Fitbit and realize you only have 1,000 steps. Even though you know you sat in bed all day and watched Netflix, it always seems to come as a surprise when you check your steps and notice that you actually have not moved all day.



5. You: “Anyone want to go for a walk?” Friend: “To where?” You: “I don’t know, anywhere. I need steps.”

This conversation always seems to happen when you are so close, yet so far, from meeting your daily goal. There is nothing worse than when your friend says "no" because they do not have a Fitbit and do not want to aimlessly walk.


6. "Which Fitbit do you have?”

When you first find out that your friend you have been convincing to get a Fitbit finally gets one or you make a new friend and find out they have a Fitbit, you are always curious which one they ended up purchasing. If it is the Charge or the Flex or the Alta you know that many Fitbit challenges await (of course that you will be winning).



7. "I didn’t do well in the challenge because my Fitbit died.”

There is nothing worse than having your Fitbit die while in the middle of a challenge and not having a charger with you. What is worse than telling your friends you are going to win and then losing?


8. “My Fitbit is charging so there’s no point of walking.”

The best excuse of all time. Why walk if your steps will not count?


9. Friend: “Fitbits aren’t accurate.” *gets all defensive* You: “Yes they are.”

Who wants a friend that is going to be so negative? These “friends” are definitely not the people who want in your life. P.S.: Do not listen to those fake friends. Fitbit steps are accurate!



10. "I have 10,000 steps.”

The best feeling possible is when you are walking and all of a sudden your Fitbit buzzes. The moment you have been waiting for. You can finally brag that you reached 10,000 steps.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
