I haven't had one- and have never been interested in getting one.
seems like one more thing to keep track of in my already overburdened life.2 -
Update one year on....
Well I still maintain that being without my Fitbit was the best thing everI have no clue what steps I do in a day and what's more is, I DON'T CARE
I was in maintenance anyway but I went on to lose a further 5lbs - I had to be more vigilent over my calorie intake if I wasn't going to step step step and instead I go into biking - a very efficient calorie burn
In my days of Fitbit-ing I would have maintained eating 2200 cals and averaging 15k steps.
I now maintain on 2000 cals, I guess I probably do 5-6k steps (if even!) and then a daily 30 mins on my exercise bike plus strength training. Talk about efficient exercise and calorie burning eh!
So I might have lost out on 200 cals with less steps but I have all this free time (I used to spend around 90 mins to 2 hrs a day either walking or running)
I love that I've found balance in my life...plus now I have a little grandson, I have spare time for lots of cuddles and play time with himlife is good
