I got a FitBit One! Now tell me about it.

[spk926]

I had a $50 visa gift card still left over from Christmas (!!!) and then some gift cards to Target that students gave me at the end of the year so I only paid something like $20 oop.

So tell me all I need to know and do with it. How often should I charge it? When do I charge it if I wear it during the day and to sleep at night? How do I join challenge groups? Anything else?

Following. I haven't worn mine for over a year and just ordered a replacement charger since I can't find it.

Maybe we should start an MMM group!

I just charge mine at night after I get the pop up that the battery is low, but I don't wear it at night anymore. I would just do it at night and forgo the sleep stats that night.

I keep my charger at work and just charge it when I am sitting at my desk, it charges quickly and lasts a long time

Is there a MMM group? I want to be in it! I just got one last week.

There is one. @pnkybrwstr set it up last week. 

To to the OP - it is fun to add friends and compete in challenges. I get a lot more steps when I do them.

I do the same. It works well since it only needs to be charged once every week or two.

Do I have to tell it I'm going to sleep or does it just know when I'm sleeping and when I wake?

[aspentosh]

To let it know you're sleeping you hold down the button and it'll vibrate and start a timer. Once you wake up, do the same thing. That syncs to the app/online and records your sleep quality.

I only need to charge once every 10ish days.

You can also tell it you are sleeping via the app.

I charge mine at my desk at work. It only needs charging every couple of weeks.
