I have been thinking of getting a fit bit or something like it. I have a HRM but am looking for something that accurately tracks my steps (had cheesy pedometers that didn't work).

I have two questions:

1) is it work the $ to get one
2) if so where can I get the best deal / what should I get?

Thanks

    I love my Polar Loop! I have it in purple, was able to adjust it to fit my wrist, and can wear it on either wrist. It is waterproof. Tracks steps, calories burned, alerts me when I have been sitting too long, tracks my sleep, and provides information when I sync it to the website. Plus, I can use it as a watch. I found it cheaper on Amazon than I did the local stores in my area. If your HRM is bluetooth capable you might be able to sync it to your loop. I don't know if it has to be a Polar HRM before it will sync to the loop. You can also download the Polar app and it will sync with your phone.

    I had a Withings Pulse that I really liked, but I kept forgetting to take it off when I showered and ruined it.

    The best deal is to buy a second-hand activity tracker from a failed New Year's resolutioner (or from someone who got one as an unwanted gift).
