2. Run pip install -r requirements.txt to download the relevant dependencies.
3. The script looks for the FITBIT_CLIENT_ID and FITBIT_REDIRECT_URI environment variables which can be provided directly from your environment or a configuration file.
4. Optionally, the script will look for environment variables for email updates if the Garmin to Fitbit sync fails.
5. Create a cron job to run the script at your desired frequency.
