    I swear I've had days where I need a little caffeine just to get to sleep.

    My father's the same way, caffeine before bed and he falls asleep. I can't. Even the wrong decaf and I'm affected.

    Just want to recognize you all for staying true to this thread. I never see it during the day! It's only active at night!!! You all know when to shut it down them bring it back...well done indeed.

    I have a Garmin 920X. It tracks my steps like a fitbit would but it also can be used for other activities like cycling and jogging and walking but tracking HR, GPS, Power and time. A fair bit larger than a fitbit though.

    I have a jawbone2 and I love it. Tracks my steps and sleep. Has a stopwatch to time exercise that isn't necessarily walking/running. Syncs with MFP. I use mapmywalk to track distance and it too syncs with MFP. My jawbone does but it comes up short on the distance.

    I miss caffeine but I think it's best we stay apart. I don't think I'll ever stop craving sugar free red bull.

    Caffeine and I are an old married couple at this point. Neither of us are going anywhere, and we don't even use words to communicate most of the time.

    So I just got a message from a high school bud. Another high school bud's wedding is in a month, and I'm expected. F***. I don't know how to wear anything other than a t-shirt, jeans and sneakers.

    Anyone have a fitbit? Do you ABSOLUTELY love it? Is it worth it? I'm unsure about it...
    I have a One and I really like it!

    I had one, keyword, had. It was one of the older, clip-on models. It got washed in the laundry and didn't survive. It was a fun little device. I think it can help "motivate" you to get more active, get in those steps, that sorta thing.

    Mine went for a swim in the washing machine, too. After that it started vibrating and wouldn't stop so I emailed tech support and they just sent me a new one, no questions asked.

    Wow. That was nice of them. :smile: My Garmin bit the dust on an update and when I called, they sent me a new one. Well, Technically, they had me send mine back and then they sent a new one but either way, I got a new one at no cost.

    I had a jawbone up24 and it kinda started falling apart after 6 months. They mailed me a new one and I mailed my old one back. No questions asked either.
