Glad I found this post today. I went out and bought a fitbit flex. I get banded on the 15th. Getting all of my 'tools' ready to go! Thanks for all the info!

Oh I love my zip, had the one and loved it too butl it was old and stopped working. Now I want an excuse to get the flex but my zip is in perfect shape still. I like that it links up to fitness pal and other apps to show your progress or you can track food on the fitbit app and website. Anyway I bought my dad one as a gift and he wears his every day. It's a great product!!! All of the models are great!

Just received one today as a gift. It seems pretty cool. My sis purchased it through Amazon.com and you can download the app for free. I haven't seen everything as to how it does it all but. It seems pretty useful.

A friend at work was considering of getting one because Weight Watches has their own for approx 40 dollars. But you have to pay 5 bucks on using the website. With the fitnit, it's free.

Good luck

I got mine at target....I have the flex and I love it!! I love that you can track your Water intake, since I always lose track of that!

Yes, I love the Water tracking too. Also, seeing my activity and how far I've walked kinda makes me want to increase it for the next time. And I forget it's even there! I'm lovin it

I saw this post and starting to consider a Fitbit myself. My birthday is coming up and my husband has been asking me what I want. I went to their website and watched the videos and stuff, but still don't understand how it makes you sleep better or exercise more. Is this thing actually worth $100 or is it just a fancy pedometer and I should I ask for jewelry instead?

Jewelry vs fitbit? That's a hard decision. I like my fitbit over a pedometer because it's more accurate and user friendly. It motivates me to exercise because I want to go over 10,000 steps. If, at the end of the day, I'm close I walk around until I hit my goal. Don't really use the sleep feature (I did a couple of times) and don't see how it could actually improve my sleep. Wt loss has improved my sleep!

I have the fitbit flex and I love it!!!! It is just a expensive pedometer unless you use it to push you to walk more and become friends with others and compete with them and let them push you as well. I have had mine since July as a birthday present....best present ever and it syncs with my fitnesspal!!!

I have the fitbit ultra. If I were to get another I would get the Bracelet one. My niece just bought the bracelet and loves it. I live in the Boston area and got mine at the AT&T store and they were discounted. I have had it since December.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
