Fitbit



Recommended Posts

I am thinking about buying the Fit Bit Force, but I have tried pedometers before and even a bumpy car ride adds many steps, so I gave up because it was so inaccurate.

I am hoping that someone can convince me that the Fit Bit is more accurate and worth the $ :P

If you do, make sure you post reviews!

I personally have the Fitbit One, and do enjoy it (as I've posted here a time or three). I like the easy syncing with my phone and the dash boarding to see my levels of activity.....couple that with the integration to myfitnesspal and it's a sound investment in my book.

If the Force was available when I was in the market, I'm not sure what I'd have done.

I just noticed the Force is not waterproof like the Flex. I wonder why.

Fitbit does not count bumpy rides or wild arm movements Im not sure how it works but it does I've been wearing minr for a few months and it only logs step movements

What is everyone talking about what is a fitbit??

the best thing to do is look it up. I have the Ultra. I wear it on my bra and it is hooked up with my computer and iPhone. It keeps track of my steps, stairs (going up only), calories burned. Then I record my gym exercises and all my foods and drinks. I love it a lot. The Bracelet one wasn't out when I got mine.

I do the same thing. Hooked up to my bra as well. It definitely does not pick up random shaking or anything. I think it is great. And mine is synced to phone and iPad

      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!!
