Talk to me about Fitbit Flex!

It may be easy but I can't figure out how to start. Please explain how to link Flex and MFP. Thanks!

There are lots of people in this forum who use MFP with Fitbit very successfully. I have been using both, in sync since September 2013. I also received the "Aria scale" as a gift and have that linked to my FitBit

In the MFP App there is a section called Apps & Devices. Click it open and a list of programs and devices that sync with MFP appear. Follow the directions.You will need to start an online account at both sites.

Also here is a link to FitBit help. Good luck!

Thank you. I will take advantage of another snowy day and give it a try.

I have been using my fitbit since November and have synced it with MFP and the Aria scale. I just love it! It motivates me to park further away, take the stairs and challenge myself to increase my amount of activity everyday. MFP is the best food, diary tool out there and syncs perfectly with my fitbit. The Aria scale is also a great tool. All of these items/apps have been essential tools in my weight loss journey.

It is part of the newer pedometers. It's a little 'bracelet' that you wear to track your steps. It will sync wirelessly with myfitnesspal and some other programs to record your steps/fitness.

I ordered my fitbit a few days ago and I can't wait to join the club!!! Should be here anyway now

My dog chewed up my fitbit. Can't wait to get a new one. I have the scale also. It's so handy.

This sounds awesome! Maybe this is what I want for my bday this year! Instead of a cake!

I still have the recalled force. I like the display too much to give it back. I put a bandaid to cover the area where they said people were getting rashes (one of the metallic contacts) and I've been ok. Lol.

Been debating about trading it in for the fitbit force or one of the other devices.

I really want to get a fitbit. Been looking on Amazon and I don't know which one to get. The flex got so so reviews vs. One and zip. Anyone have those? Which one do you recommend? Please let me know. Thnks

The fitbit flex is awesome. I am not sure why the reviews aren't stellar, but I know 5 other people who have the fitbit flex and they love it as much as I do!
