  • Body Media is VERY similar to the Body Bugg, more enhancements on the Media. I have the Body Media Fit LINK it syncs with my phone real time information. I researched many of them and the Body Media reviews and reports have shown almost 90% accuracy.Take a look at bodymedia.com.

    I use a Fitbit and I'm extremely happy with it, and the integration with other apps like MFP and Digifit. It's accurate and keeps me motivated.

    I had a FitBit briefly and found it to be inaccurate.

    I switched to a BodyMedia FIT and have found it to be perfectly accurate. I would never recommend the FitBit, although many people love theirs.

    I use the Mio Active Connect. I love it. It is almost exact to what the machines at the gym say for a calorie count.
  • I compared the bodybugg, bodymedia, fitbit and many others. I ended up buying the fitbit and absolutely LOVE it. I don't know about the other devices personally but am I completely pleased with the fitbit. I just upgraded from the fitbit ultra to the fitbit one.

    Fitbit only any old for walking/running activity. Some people use it and then have a HRM. For exercise. BMF is accurate for all day wear. check out the Amiigo which is coming out later in the year too.

    i love my fitbit, if you log all your measurements and such during set up it seems to be very close to what my treadmill reads re: calories burned/steps.

    it syncs perfectly with MFP and super easy to wear, i hide mine on my bra or on my belt
  • I love my Striiv. Free app and connects to MFP! :flowerforyou:
  • I have had a fitbit original and I have a fitbit ultra and love them they keep me motivated and are accurate enough for me. I looked at bodymedia? but I would not realistically wear it on my arm...its just not happening it would bug me its quite large. So for me personally the fitbit is decrete and works with me

    I have the bodybugg and love it. Hardly even notice that Im wearing it anymore. But I would get the bodymedia link if I was to do it again. I bought it before I joined MFP and didnt know I would need the syncing capability. Theyre both made by the same company and are basically the same thing tho i think the body media now has more features
