Garmin fitness band users



Recommended Posts

After struggling with the misfit flash (I loved it a lot, but after some use, it broke twice!) I returned it for a refund and got the Garmin vivosmart which is part fitness band, part smart watch. I really like it and I find the app and the website really useful/informative. Does anyone have a garmin fitness band and use the Garmin connect app with it? If so I'd love to have some buddies over there!

I am heynowkc over there as well.

I have a vivosmart as well. I've had fitbits before but I like this as you can shower/swim with it too. And it gives me messages and allows me to phone screen. I'm craigcu there as well.

@@craigcu I tried to find you but wasn't able to. There's no way for me to say that I'm searching for a username and not a person's first and last name so all these "Craig CuXXX" names come up. Cunningham Cullens Cummings etc.

I got a vivofit a few days ago and so far it is very motivating as I am just figuring it out. I was only able to connect to heynowkc.

My username is KDM74 or try Keslie. I can't find anyone on my mobile so I will try on the computer.

Just a quick note to say that I am getting all of your invites, but I ended up returning my vivosmart. I actually really liked it but am trying life without a fitness band for a while. Maybe at some later date I will try one again.

I'm glad to find this forum. I have used a Misfit ( lost it) Fitibt (lost it) and a Pebble (yea, you guessed it.) I have now opted for the Vivofit, which I haven't lost in a year.

I am greenbaymichk (guess where I live??)

Sleeve 6/22 ( one week anniversary today) and getting back on the road. I (perhaps, foolishly) signed up to walk a half marathon in Late September. Gotta get going!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
