    I went with the Zip because I didn't want something on my wrist, and I didn't need the sleep or stairs/floor tracking, it seems to have the best track record at not falling off a person, and I'm cheap.

    Me too! I'm on my third one because I kept losing them. It is always clipped to me and I think I lose them at the swimming pool. So now on swimming days I leave it at home. I've had my Fitbit Zip for months and months and my daily goal has steadily climbed. I average between 5,000 and 8,000 steps a day now.

    Same here! I only get 30 mins for lunch so I bring my own food eat then clock out for 30 and walk around the wear house but I go to the gym almost daily and walk my dog as well

    I love my fitbit! It is the best motivator I have to get me to move more. It is the perfect tool for me. I do not sync it with MFP, because, I use mine just to coax me into moving more, and for that it is excellent! I do not care about calories burned as I do not eat back my exercise calories.

    Same here. I have a simple Zip and it does everything I need it to do. I also read many reviews that the wrist-based ones have difficulty counting when pushing a baby stroller- an activity that accounted for half my steps over the summer.
