Fitness Band highs and lows

Last year, I upgraded my UP2 fitness band to an UP3 and I love it!  I check my sleep every morning and monitor my steps throughout the day. 

The other morning I checked my sleep and had no reading, thought I just needed to recharge but my band was GONE!  It last synced at 9:30 the night before, so I thought back to where I was, what I was doing and started searching.  (I was in my driveway emptying a 55 lb. bag of dog food from my trunk into the bin to take it in the house.)  I search my car and my driveway with no luck.  I look through the bin and bag of dog food with no luck.  I go to work sad that none of my steps would count.

That night, I search again more thoroughly and as I was scooping through the dog food bin, I found it!!!  So happy, back to normal.  (the high)

The next morning, I have no sleep results because now the battery had died.  I put it on the charger at work, forget it's on the charger and decide to walk to the bank instead of driving.  Halfway there, I remember my band.  (the low)

Other people wouldn't understand how great and sad this was.

So glad you found your fit bit device. I am on my fourth one, two having fallen off my pants pocket and one went through the wa****s funny how you get attached and think "oh I forgot my fit bit today so steps don't count".  But of course they do as our body gets the benefit. WE discovered them quite a few years ago and introduced them to Dr. Cirangle. After our support group he walked across the street to Target and got one! 

So I do understand the highs and lows of fit bit usage. They are a good thing.  Diane S.

I just bought a Charge 2 and absolutely LOVE it.  So far, I feel it is far more accurate than my previous Charge.  The only time I take it off is to weigh, and to shower!
