    You want to see a Fit Bit freak out? Wear it when you ride a horse. 4 beat walk. It thinks you're really moving!

    I use FitBit and I love it as well! It definitely keeps me motivated. Does anyone else think that the calorie adjustment it sends to MFP is a bit low?

    I think the calorie count for the FitBit is lower than BodyMedia and BodyBugg (there was a user who compared both on this thread: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/541799-bodymedia-fit-vs-fitbit-accuracy). But it sounds like the other ones (BodyMedia and BodyBugg) may be too high. I think I'd rather have a more conservative count than an inflated count.

    And, it obviously doesn't do a good job tracking calories for things like weight training, cycling, etc. But, in general, I've found it to be pretty accurate (I've been maintaining my weight for a while and my calorie count comes in roughly where I thought it would be).

    I like it -- it's a great motivator for me to get off my butt :-)

    My wife and I started using fitbit two months ago. We love having the feedback. If we ever lost or broke them, we'd order a new one the same day.

    I had the bodybug for about a month and then took it back. It was a pain after awhile having to wear it all the time on your arm. It doesn't seem like it would but when you are wearing it 23hr a day...Also my main issue was the interface. It was horrible for looking up calories, food ect. Nothing compares to MFP. So you end up doing 2 different websites for 1 day. It got so frustrating. LOVE my fit bit! It is small, easy and it downloads to MFP. I would recommend this little guy every time!
