What is the best fitbit?



Recommended Posts

I ordered the flex, and like it for all the same reasons that others have posted. I like the fact that it is in a wristband, versus clipping it on or putting it in pocket. I figured that the clip on was a sure fire way to end up in the washing machine, or lost somewhere. I've been wearing the flex for 2 months now and have zero issues, be it work, play, rest, etc...

What about the garmin vivofit....the interesting thing i find about it is that you dont need to charge it for a whole year! and its the only one truely waterproof(with which you can swim)

I have the vivofit and love it!! Yes it is Water proof up to like 50 meters (it doesn't track laps very well though). It comes with a heart rate monitor which is awesome for workouts! There's a cue (red bar) to tell you if you've been sitting for too long and the longer you sit, the longer you have you walk to get rid of it. Never has to charge. I actually never take it off.

Absolutely love it!!

I'm looking for a way to track my activity and motivate me throughout the day. Which fit bit would talk recommend? The Flex? The One? Is there another one I should look at?

I had a flex and gave it to my daughter. Got tired of it being on my arm ALL the time. Got a one and love it. Hooks on my bra or in a pocket. Keeps track of stairs.

I like the flex because I can shower with it on but hate the short battery life. Charge only last 24 hours and after having Fitbit send me a new one that had the exact same problem, I gave up. I have heard that Apple is coming out with something. I will be first in line for that when it comes out.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
