My daughter has one and LOVES it. She says it is worth every dime. I will get one as I get more active

Yes, I bought one about 6 weeks ago just to track my steps. It keeps me focused on number of steps and keeps me parking far away from buildings to get more steps in.

Good luck!

I love it because it keeps me honest...I link it to my fitness pal and track calories, Protein, carbs and water-fitbit syncs with it to get calories burned from exercise.

LOVE mine!!!! I have a Zip, and have been using it for just over a year. Several family members also have them & as a way to help me stay motivated we have "competitions" each week/weekend. It makes me look at my steps often throughout the day and always try to push that little bit more. Last night I was 28 steps shy of my 10,000 for the day, so I did laps around our bedroom until I hit my goal! It really is worth it, especially considering I have the "cheap" one that doesn't have any of the bells and whistles on it.

I have the Charge HR model and love it!

I have the Charge HR, as well. I upgraded from the Flex, because I was tired of wearing the Flex + a watch! I love that it shows the time, my steps, I can see who is calling by looking at my wrist (LOL), shows stairs climbed, my heart rate, and more. It even automatically monitors my sleep.

What's cool about apps like this, is there are so many entities out there that WANT you to get healthy. I auto-sync with LoseIt! of course, but I also have it sync'd with Walgreens. It works with their rewards program - the more steps I take, the more rewards points I get back, which yes, turns into cash! So love it!

I also have the fitbit hr, and have had it for over a year(I was one of those that HAD to have it when it came out). I never knew about the walgreens thing! Thank you for posting!!!!

I love mine! Its a great motivator to get active! Especially if you have friends and you work to out do them in steps! I also love seeing how my walking burns so many calories. In short, its great if you really want to get moving.

I have the charge HR as well. I love challenging friends and family each week to see who has the most steps, it keeps me motivated! I can't tell you how many times I've taken laps around my house just to get those last few hundred steps to 10,000 lol!

I like mine too. Simple way to see where I am during the day. And I agree, challenging friends keeps me motivated.

Has anyone else noticed though, that it's not very accurate if you're walking on a treadmill? I'm guessing maybe since my arms don't move like they would if I was just walking (I'm clumsy so I hold on). That would be my only complaint.

Another advocate of the Fitbit, I've got the charge HR too, I'm still quite early on my journey but using it and the app really focus me on what I'm doing. The sleep function is quite interesting too

I have the Fitbit One and love it just to keep track of how many steps I take daily. I've had it 8 months now and still clip it on every day.

I have a fit bit one and I love it. I only take it off to shower and charge it. I have it synched to Myfitnesspal. It keeps me active and in touch with my friends and family that are also Fitbit users. I also have their scale which I like as well!!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
