I saw this on Facebook and thought some of you might be able to relate to it.

Stepping Out Living the Fitbit life.

Thank you so much for sharing. I love David Sedaris. I have a Fitbit and am not too obsessed. I became too obsessed with my heart rate monitor and had it to give it up. I would get too mad at myself for not getting my heart rate up enough. I thought it might happen with the Fitbit, but I think the less information is better for me.

I almost posted that here after I read it. Love it!

Thanks for posting. It is good timing. I just started wearing mine again today after not using it for months.

Reading the OP, I just knew it would be hilarious. And it was. Time well spent.

Thanks for posting. I love Sedaris and just upgraded from a Zip to a Flex and am already getting obsessed.

I have the WW ActiveLink and can relate - I love the picture of the little guy inside the FitBit like it's a hamster wheel.
