Not having a tracker is like taking your laundry to the river instead of using the washing machine. It is wonderful to have technology do the work for you. Who has time to count 10000 steps a day?

Spoken as a true gastric bypass patient, can a Fitbit count toots coming from the caboose, too? :)

Hi thighhighboots,

This has been discussed before on our forums. I posted this question myself a few months ago and ended up getting the Fit*****arge HR.

Here is a link from our search about the fitbit. Hopefully it will help. Read what our members had to say

Good Luck!

Love, love, love my Fitbit. My husband and I have had them since they very first came out (before they were all the rage!) I plan on upgrading to the Charge very soon. Wonderful company that stands by their product. They have replaced mine more than once - for no charge. Once is was because I lost it - it fell off while I was camping! Can't say enough good things about the company and product. I really keeps me motivated to get my steps in!

I got the fitbit surge a couple of months ago. Love it. I was never a logger and this has made it so easy. Don't know how I lived without it.

Love my Fitbit and use it as motivation at the gym, I will pull the app on on my phone and watch the steps go up up up!

I have the fitbit flex and honestly aside from surgery itself its the best money I could have spent on my health. It keeps me accountable. I cant fudge the numbers or talk myself into believing that I did more that what I actually did. It keeps me honest with myself.
