FITBIT Definitions
A new device that contains a 3D motion sensor that accurately tracks your calories burned-steps taken-distance traveled and sleep quality – Collins Dictionary

someone who’s hot and fit to boot – a bit of alright. – Urban Dictionary

A device that is really useful to track every little movement your body makes and makes people crazy about doing things that you do everyday anyway and is the excuse for not eating properly or regularly exercising because you think the steps you take count even though you do them everyday anyway device – My Definition

It is amazing how trends happen. I watched this trend transpire back when they started doing those little belt clip step counters. It has developed into this crazy obsessed little cult-like community of people! It is great to know how many steps you are taking, it is great to know how you are sleeping, it is great to know every single movement you do daily. I just think that too many people are using as an excuse to get out of other exercising. “Well I took 30,000 steps today so I don’t need to go to the gym” “I can eat this whole pizza because I increased my steps by 3,000 today”

I decided for this Friday post, I would put together a list of other ways to burn calories!
