I don't have one yet. But my surgery is still several months away, so hopefully I will get one before then! ☺️

I'm on my way to Best Buy to pick up my Jawbone UP2! I'm a tech geek and now have a reason to justify the purchase! ???? I'm also very curious about my sleep because my doctor keeps asking if I snore...she suspects sleep apnea due to my neck size...I'm hoping the UP2 will give me a little insight...and I'm the kind of person that likes to see numbers (i.e.: steps, calories, etc)

So here's the 5 main reasons I chose the Jawbone UP line over Fitbit:

1) it's slimmer

2) I don't need text/call alerts

3) the UP app is superior to The Fitbit app, especially when adding food

4) it has an adjustable strap which shrinks with you (you know, for when you're all skinny and stuff ????) Fitbit makes you choose either a small, medium or XL and the XL is only available with certain models

5) the UP2 now automatically knows when you are asleep (same as Fitbit)

Here's a good article by PC Mag on fitness trackers http://mobile.pcmag.com/reviews/55853-best-fitness-trackers-for-2015?origref=

I also watched YouTube videos that helped me narrow it down to exactly what I was looking for.

Happy Tracking!

I had one but noticed it wasn't very accurate. I had the Charge. If I waved my hand back and forth it counted that as steps took. Other than that I liked it. I took it back and am researching more or just going to use my iPhone. I wanted the HR but no one in our area had it. I think it would be better than the regular one.

      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?
