Yesterday I finally set up my FitBit!! I got it months and months ago and never set it up. Every morning I would get dressed for work and see it there in the box on my dresser taunting me. It sat on the dresser next to the exercise machine that held up my bathrobe. Both taunted me and both made me avoid that area of my room!
This weekend I looked in the mirror and saw a new version of myself. One I had never seen before and one I hope leaves soon. I don’t know when it happened or how I gained weight but I have never been like this before and FINALLY I am DONE!!! I am taking back my body, hanging my bathrobe on a hook, using the exercise machine, tracking points on my Weight Watchers app and I SET UP THE FIT BIT!!!
Do you have a FitBit?? Connect with me sarah.pennvet@gmail.com and lets encourage one another!!
Did you Know…You can connect your FitBit to your Weight Watchers app for activity points??
WELL YOU CAN and HERE is how….

Once the app opens click MORE on the bottom right hand corner
Next click the GEAR symbol at the top right hand corner
Next scroll to Activity Sync and you need to click where it says disabled in order to enable it
Click ANOTHER DEVICE

Thanks so much!!!
It was so easy
So glad it helped Lea!!!
it won’t let me sync my fitbit to the ww app zi don’ t know why
Hi, I tried this, but the screen still shows “Disabled” even though on the next screen it shows my fitbit connected. 🙁
Oh I am sorry it’s not working. If you reach out to fitbit and get an answer would you share it here so others will know??
Mine shows the same but it seems to be syncing all of my activities. What I’m not sure of is whether I should be also logging “exercises in fitbit. When I don’t, it still seems to send activity info to WW. It’s seems to double up points when I do log activity in fitbit. Any clue?
Did anyone get a reply on why it still shows disabled, even though it has the fitbit connected? Thanks!
I got nothing here!! I will reach out to fitbit
Any luck yet??
Mine does this too…..
I am looking for an answer to this same problem. It says “disabled” but when I go in further it says that my fitbit is synced. Any answers yet?? Also, are those of you with this problem seeing your activity actually being logged??
I do have same issue but my activity IS being logged. I have a Charge HR Fitbit. When I do an activity, I click and hold the button on the fitbit to start the “Activity” mode. When I’m done, I stop it. Within an hour or so, my WW app is updated. Sometimes it WW screen needs to be refreshed.hope this helps.
Woohoo! Thanks!
I got a fitbit charge hr which you can time a workout and then it tells you exactly what your heart rate was doing during your workout and how many calories you burned. However this does not translate into activity points for me on weight watchers even though it shows up on my fitbit app. I spoke to someone at weight watchers and they told me activity does not show up until you hit 5000 steps…..what about calories burned and weight training or mat workouts. You burn calories/fat but no steps really. I guess i was really hoping that even my specific workouts would translate over into activity points regardless of steps. Just wondering if i interpreted the conversation wrong with the weight watchers spoke person or if anyone else can help me out here.
MINE HAS YET TO SHOW ACTIVITY POINTS EITHER
I talked with weight watchers today and apparently their is an app problem that only affects SOME people and they hope to work it out soon. As of today, my fitbit seems to be connected, but does not track to ww. I cannot get the ww app to be accessible to my fit bit. Apparently ww has a serious technical problem that hopefully we will be notified when resolved. I have spent several hours trying to reestablish fitbit connection to no avail…..may use the fitbit app itself and stop paying ww!
I’m having the same problem too. I have a Fitbit Flex. I’m also have to uninstall and reinstall Weight Watchers app. Sometimes when I log in, the screen is just black. A very royal pain in hiney.
That was so helpful! I was dazed and confused until I found this post! Thank you so much!
Many thanks, I am now all set!!
finally. Your instructions only ones that got me connected! thx,
YAY!!! Glad to help!!
can you tell me how to actually set my “fitbit points” so that I can use them? It shows I have earned fitbit points but it isn’t deducting them when I log my food??
SO… I was having the same issue with connecting my fitbit. I found it much easier to log into the website, click on the profile button and it has you sign into your fitbit account. Sign out of our app, sign in, and it’s synced up. Hope that helps
Yay! Thank you for posting this! I’m all set.
