Fitbit

Thinking of getting a fitbit. Wondered if anyone has one and if they have been happy with it. Also trying to decide between a fitbit one or zip. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

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!

Btw I get banded next week and will be using my fitbit zip as extra motivation!

Oh and Best Buy and radio shack are 2 places that I know carry fitbit.

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

Love my fit bit! And I sinc it to my fitness pal. Love keeping track of it all and being able to see progress.

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 love my fitbit, and now I'm going to use it to up my steps and activity!!!

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.

I bought mine from HSN.
