I have hit the 6 week mark and now feel ready to start really exercising. I'm sure many started before this but with me I just wanted to wait and let things sort of become more normal first. Anyways I want to get an activity tracker. I'm leaning towards the fitbit flex but I want to make the right choice. Any feed back would help. Likes, dislikes, or even other kinds that you guys like better. Thank you so much!

I absolutely LOVE my fit bit flex.... Worth the 100.00. Keeps me accountable for my food intake and activity. I like being able to see the steps and active minutes increase throughout the day.

I have the Fitbit flex and I love it. I think it is pretty accurate and once you get used to the annoying rubber wrist band, it is awesome. I have seen that Garmin has a new product out (Vivofit, $129) that might be the next step in these trackers, but I'm sticking with the Fitbit for now. It's a great little tool for about $97 bucks.

I also have the flex and im really happy with it!!

Links up directly with my fitness pal too which is perfect

I have a fitbit one which I clip to my bra - I find it easier than wearing a bracelet type activity tracker - and it doesn't show. I have to dress up somewhat for work and a rubber looking bracelet just doesn't look right all the time. It has been quite accurate and also links up with My Fitness Pal and Sparkpeople. I find it motivating as I am always trying to improve the number of steps I take.
