So I came across this app called fitbit on Google play and went to the site Daly the flex cost 99.99 and I don't have that to spend our I would get it. ..it says it tracks toe sleep patterns as well as daily exercise activity basically it's a very sophisticated pedometer that connect to your phone via blue tooth and constantly updates all the info it gathers and tells you how much you have worked out how many this that and the other you used and can be linked to other daily meal apps to give you a broad spectrum of what your eating and how much of it your working of and of you are meeting your goals as well as if you are getting enough deep sleep at night which I know is all important to this but I was wondering has anyone used it and is it really worth it. .. did it help you or not?

And incase your wondering what im talking about here is a link to the site.

I do not have the fit bit ......do to my fear of clipping it in my clothing and washing it! I went with the Jawbone which is a bracelet with all the same bells and whistles as a fit bit. It tracks my steps workouts and my food. I do have to enter my food by taking pictures with my phone of bar codes and adjusting the serving size. I have a team on my jaw bone and we will see daily who has the greater number of steps. They say you can also shower with the jawbone,.....I do not. Love the sleep mode, I have learned I require 3.5 hours of deep sleep to feel refreshed for my day. Good luck in your decision!

The fit bit now has one called the flex which is a wrist band that u can get in different colors and it looks almost like one of those rubber bands that says like I support cancer etc on it is what it looks like to be but it may have a buckle im not sure

I have the UP band by Jawbone & love it!!! I have had it since May. It really keep me motivated to stay on track. I also do not shower with it but pretty much wear it 24/7.

I have the fitbit ultra and love it. It's the older model of the fitbit line. Customer service has always been amazing and the app/website is easy to use. I also have the fitbit scale, which does weight, bmi, body fat percent and lean vs fat.

I am planning on getting the flex soon, although it is on backorder for 6-8 weeks at this point. Unlike the other fitbit products I've owned, this one is also water resistant which is a huge plus to me. I also like that it's a wristband and not something that clips on because I have misplaced and washed mine before...

I have the fitbit flex and it is AWESOME!! I had the first gen fitbit - it lasted 2+ years then fell apart during a volleyball dive.. I wore it every day and washed it a few times too... It was totally worth the $100!

Now I have the flex. You wear it on your wrist and it is Water risistant. I set my steps for 12000 and don't stop till I get there.

Can you swim with the fitbit flex?

I have the fitbit one and love it. I actually get a little sad when I realize I didn't put it on after I shower. I think I would like the flex but I worry about it looking professional.

Well maybe once I get some extra cash I might go for it and you can get the band in different colors so im sure black would look professional....
