Hi,

I was thinking of getting a fitbit, but reviews are mixed. Anyone have and use one? What is your experience and what model if you have one?

regards,

Kelly

After many years of resistance to technology, I gave in recently and bought a Misfit Shine.

I. Am. Addicted.

Not only does it tell me my steps, the distance, estimated calories burned.... it also monitors my sleep, all cycles (I have a terrible sleep problem).

Love it, love it, love it.

Edited to add: Oh, and it looks like jewelry. Like really pretty, sorta cool jewelry. *heart*

Edited again: Oh! And it measures everything - swimming, cycling... and well, walking lol

I love mine and when mine fell off when I was removing my jacket during a walk the company replaced it at no cost.

It motivates me to finish to my goal when I am close.

I recommend it to everyone

I just bought a fitbit one, and LOVE it! I wear it all the time, during sleep I wear it on a arm band. It syncs to my phone and computer.....OMG I love it and highly recommend it. I am going to buy them as gifts for some family members who have everything. I have used many pedometers over the years, and they SUCK compared to the fitbit one. It stays on my bra very securely!

I bought the fitbit flex yesterday...I am in love with it so far. I think the reviews come from people who start a workout regiment and fail at it. I think that it is an essential items for WLS pre and post ops.

The flex is really comfortable. Hardly know I have it on and I love that it's synced to my iPhone and myfitnesspal.
