    No problem. It's in the shop showing where you can buy e tra armbands.

    I ordered my LINK through Costco today. Just a FYI for others considering the Costco deal, the website says this round ends March 17th. I'm feeling a little impatient waiting for it to get here though!!

    I have had mine four years. Bodymedia Fit (was called Gowear Fit when I bought it) with a display watch. I want to upgrade sometime and get the one that syncs with the phone, but for now this is fine.

    I LOVE it. Gives you awesome info, you can even tell your sleep efficiency. It gives an accurate, great read on most activities. (only one that seems wonky to me is bike riding, but whatever).

    I love mine. Have had it for several weeks and it is addicting. I thought it would bother me on my arm but it has not. I take it off only to shower :-) Costco has a pretty good deal going on right now where you can get the Link and a year's subscription for 120.00. I think it generally comes with only a 3 month subscription when you buy it elsewhere.

    The Link doesn't handle bike riding very well either. You get a more accurate read biking if you wear it on your calf.

    Is BodyMedia Fit worth it if you live a sedentary lifestyle (besides trying to workout at home)?
    I am unemployed right now and losing weight with a TDEE deficient.

    Yes, I think it is. You will be able to see the difference between a sedentary day and an active day and it will motivate you to move more.

    I love mine and have it for years. My doctor loves all the data it provides.

    They just came out with yearly subscriptions or you can pay $6.95 a month. I looked up the Core 2 that they are going to release but I would not wait for that. Seems that when a new product comes out, takes a while to work out the bugs.

    LOVE mine! I noticed your question about it being annoying. Just to make sure my skin does not get irritated, I wear it on my right arm at night!

    ALSO, do NOT tighten the band to omuch, the little plates will stick to your arm. I found my sweet spot is prett high on my arm (I have lots of extra arm skin that is still pretty thick), Once you find your sweet spot, you hardly notice it at all!
