Walgreens Way to Well Tour and a Giveaway for a FitBit Flex
I was given product and compensated for this post, but all opinions are always my own.
The Walgreens Way to Well Tour is currently in the San Francisco Bay Area and they are making their way around to different areas. I went and had my free tests done. There is no payment or insurance necessary and they will test your cholesterol, glucose, blood pressure, BMI, visceral fat, skeletal mass and give you a “body age”.
The Way To Well Tour bus was like an actual doctor’s office inside. I was very impressed. This is such a great and free way to get some preventative tests done. I was given my results and they also explained what all my numbers meant. On my results page they listed the “healthy ranges” that my numbers should be between, which I thought is very helpful for understanding your results and a target goal. I had never had my visceral fat number done before and was please to learn that it is a scale of 1-59 and that 1-10 is considered healthy and I was a 5.
While at the Way to Well Tour I also learned how to link my FitBit to my Walgreens Balance Rewards card! I am so excited about this. I can earn more points with every mile. To link your activity tracker all you need to do is create an account on Walgreens.com that has your Balance Reward information. Then click on “Steps with Balance Rewards” and it will walk you right through the process.
You can earn 20 points per mile for running, walking and cycling!!! I love shopping for deals in the store that help me earn Balance Rewards and now I have another way to help build up my points a little quicker. If you don’t already have a Balance Rewards card you can sign up at your local Walgreens or online at Walgreens.com. You get a $5 reward for every 5,000 points you earn that you can use to buy your favorite products at Walgreens.
Do you want to win a FitBit Flex so you too can start earning more Balance Rewards? You are in luck because I have one to giveaway! Enter below. There is a fun entry option where you can tweet daily a healthy choice you make and use the hashtag #WayToWellTour. For example “I made a healthy choice and took the stairs instead of the elevator. #WayToWellTour” or ” I chose an apple instead of a candy bar today. #WayToWellTour” . Enter below:

A fit bit will help me make healthy choices by letting me see how active I am throughout the day instead of just seeing my activity when I’m at the gym or on a run.
shanks324 | 17th May 14
It would help to motivate me to move. It’s also nice to see how active you are in a day.
Elizabeth | 17th May 14
I’ve been wanting to buy a FitBit to see where I’m going wrong with my weight loss journey. I seem to have hit a plateau and I think a FitBit would help me figure it out.
Allison Dailey | 18th May 14
I would love a FitBit to see how active I really am during the day, so I know if I need to make changes or not
Ann Marie Orlando | 18th May 14
I would like a FitBit because I am curious to see how I sleep at night and how much I walk during the day at work.
Jenn @ Fairest Run of All | 18th May 14
I know I get good exercise sessions in – but I’d love to have a fitbit to tell me how much I move outside the gym.

Kristen M | 19th May 14
I’m competitive with myself and do best creating mini challenges. This will help keep me moving as it’s important for me to not let myself down.
Jenna | 19th May 14
A FitBit would help me track the things I can’t by myself (like my water intake, steps per day, and amount of sleep I’m getting) to get the most out of the new lifestyle I’m building for myself.
Sarah S. | 19th May 14
A fitbit would keep me responsible to myself about my health and activity choices. I think it would also accurately inform me of how much activity I’m doing a day, which keeps me from “sugar coating” it for myself and will keep me on track!
Amy | 20th May 14
A fitbit would help motivate me tremendously and I have been wanting one for so long! This would be awesome. Thanks for the opportunity.
Cali | 20th May 14

Sarah C | 24th May 14

Abby Hollinhead | 26th May 14
A Fitbit would help motivate me to stay more active during the day!
Marina Oros | 26th May 14
I’ve been eyeing the fitbit for some time because of it’s sleek design. I’m running my first marathon this fall and am training and tracking my time, distance, and steps. The fitbit would be so perfect
Boise Runner (@RunInBoise) | 26th May 14
I need a way to better track my movement during the day. It’s not as much as it should be.
Olive To Run (@Olivetorun) | 26th May 14
A lot of the reviews included the user mentioning how they didn’t realize how much they WEREN’T moving during the day… the fitbit flex would serve as a constant reminder to keep myself in motion during the day 🙂
Blaire Martin | 26th May 14
Having an activity tracker would make me more accountable for being active during the week. I sit at a desk all day for work, and it would be a good motivator to try to fit more into my time after work or at lunch.
Colleen Boudreau | 26th May 14
It will help me stay on track!
Stephanie @Cat Lady Runs | 27th May 14
I think seeing a particularly inactive day will encourage me to get off my butt and move more!
katie | 27th May 14
A fitbit would keep me accountable to my friends who have one and to myself. Having a new baby who doesn’t sleep, I’ve done away with a lot of early morning workouts in the name of getting a little more rest, but getting a fitbit would remind me to move more 🙂
A Mother's Pace | 28th May 14
A fitbit would be helpful to track activity from the day and try and push myself to do more.
Amy K | 30th May 14
Having a Fitbit would motivate me to move more as summer starts because I can watch my progress in real time. Thanks!
