Ladies, which fitness tracker do you use?

Apple Watch...I found that the HRM was gauging quite similar to my chest HRM and way more comfortable.0

I've tried a few different ones over the year. By far, my favourite is the Fitbit Alta. I went through about 3 broken Jawbone trackers before I gave up on that brand. I have the Fitbit Charge HR which is really fantastic, but I upgraded to the Fitbit Alta because it fits in more with my office work-wardrobe. The Charge HR tracks calories more accurately because it is tracking your HR through out the day, so if you don't care about it's bulk, that would be a great choice too.0

Hello, I just bought a fitbit Alta and love it except it will not sync w/MFP. I saw where MFP was having sync issues but I wanted to check if anyone else was having the same issues. Thanks0

I have a Fitbit Alta which Fitbit sent to me when my charge broke. It's really slim and you can buy loads of different bands to make it a little more fashionable, although I think it looks pretty good as it is I also use a Polar FT4 and HRM strap for workouts!0

I have a polar m400. It is a little big on my small wrist but it does everything I could ever want except heart rate in water. Activity tracker, GPS and heart rate with strap and even gets messages from my phone! If I could I would upgrade to the new m600 which looks amazing!0

Fitbit charge hr. Love it0

I have a TomTom Multisport, which I use for biking, but is also good for running, swimming and treadmill. I love it because it maps my ride, shows me average speed for each mile I travel and graphs my speed, inclines and heart rate. I don't think it would be good for walking. I had a fit bit, for walking, but it stopped charging after a couple months.0

I use Garmin VivoSmartHR0

I just tuck a fitbit zip into my bra. I don't want a big ugly thing on my wrist and I don't do cardio so no need for a HRM.0
-
I have a Polar FT4 which I used for all my exercizes for years now without fail. Almost 2 weeks ago I received my Fitbit Surge and I am totally in love with it. Only downfall is that they do not have any girly colors in Surge so I got the black one.0

Fitbit Flex. It tracks my steps and my sleep, and that's really all I need.0

Fitbit blaze! I've had it about 6 months now and love it!1

I've had my Fitbit Blaze for about 2 weeks now and I love it.1

I just replaced my Fitbit flex with a Fitbit Charge and I love it. I used to have to track my workouts with my polar watch while wearing the heat rate monitor strap but the Fitbit Charge takes care of all of that. Would highly recommend to anyone.0

I have the Fitbit Blaze, had it for a couple months now and I love it! It's a little bulky but with fancy straps it doesnt look bad.0
-
I have the PolarA360. Been using polar for years..never used any other brand...there's not to many out there that count ur calories while swimming.0
-
I just recently purchased the Garmin Forerunner 25 with heart rate band because I didn't want to spend $250 or more.
The only thing I dislike it about it is that everything is recorded as running.... I have to go into the Garmin Connect app to move everything to where they should be ( walking, cycling etc)
But then it's possible I'm not using it properly because I've only had it about 2 or 3 weeks & was previously a Polar user! ... when my Polar F11 died recently, I decided I wanted something with a GPS.

I like the look, though it seems big. And a review I read said it recommends being worn on your shirt when you sleep (instead of wrist). But... I don't wear a shirt when I sleep lol.
I have a coworker who has one. She says she loves it and that it tracks everything ( I honestly know nothing about it that's just what she told me) it does look pretty
I thought it was pretty and looked into it but it doesn't track calories and that for me was a turn-off.... especially for the price they were asking!0 -
I have the Fitbit Charge HR and just upgraded to the Surge. I love them both, Surge is more bulky but like it for the GPS and the option to swim with it.0

I bought the jawbone up3 and the Fitbit charge hr at the same time and wore both for two weeks together. I found the jawbone more comfortable, accurate, charge lasts longer, and fashionable. I have found the calorie count to be pretty accurate compared to how I'm losing.0

It doesn't track calories? Oh that's a bummer. I wouldn't have much use for it then.

I literally just received my Jawbone UP2 lightweight/thin straps today so I cannot really give a review. So far it feels very comfortable and the steps seem to be fairly accurate. I had a hard time deciding which I wanted. I jumped from different brands and models. I found this one discounted to $36 compared to $99 retail and figured why not? I'm liking the positive Jawbone reviews in here, makes me excited0

Garmin Fenix. Because I have rather lofty fitness plans...0

I also had the Garmin Vivosmart and it died so now I have Garmin Vivoactive HR. It's a little big but I wear it 24/7.0

First I bought a fitbit blaze. The thing was hell on earth. Had lots of great features, but the heart rate while working out was wonky once I started to sweat and it wouldn't hook up to the app and wouldn't synch with MFP. It also rarely was able to do the bluetooth pair. It made me so mad and took up too much of my time to figure out.
I took it back and looked at the Garmins, but they were too ugly. I just couldn't put that abomination on my arm and go about my life.
Now I have the FitBit Charge 2 and I love it. So far no problems. It just asked me to feed it 25 steps lol. So I took a walk around my office. It's pairing up nicely with MFP and the heartbeat tracker is within 5 beats of what my old heart rate monitor says, so I'm keeping it. And it vibrates when I have a call or text, so I can turn my ringer off while i'm working and no one is the wiser.
It also tracks my sleep pretty accurately. I have sleep anxiety and non-clonic jerk in my sleep, so it's nice to see a graph of all the times I have jerked and woke up screaming. I plan on showing the graph to my doctor eventually so he can see how bad it is.
Not to mention it is pretty. Only one problem with it, the alarm function doesn't wake me up. I guess I'm a deep sleeper.0
