    It seems like every day there are more out there...I can only speak on what I have which is the Fitbit-I had the Ultra than got the One. I like it-it's helped me move more

    Same here, I got a FitBit One as an early birthday present and love it!

    I just got the Ormon HJ-112. It was on Amazon for about $22. I read a lot of good reviews on it and decided to get it, as I had purchased one (a New Balance one) previously, and it kept calculating the slightest movement - including over 1k steps while driving to work!



    I reall like it so far and find it is accurate. No steps while driving. I'm also quite fidgity and a leg shaker and it doesn't count any of those movements as steps either :)

    I have a fit bit as well... it is awesome. I have never been able to find a pedometer that was even close to being accurate. The fitbit can be synced with your MFP account, and it is totally worth the money you spend on it.

    I have been through cheaper pedometers, and more expensive ones. I have found a huge love for the Fitbit One. I do not regret the purchase.

    I have the FItbit Ultra, expensive (imho) but I like it, and it syncs with mfp.

    Depends on what you are looking to spend.
    $100.00 Fitbit One for sure as it syncs with MFP
    $50ish the Fitbit Zip
    $35.00 Sportline 310

    Just make sure to get one with digital step counting and avoid the cheaper ones that use a rocker. Accelerometer based is best. I had a rocker based one that used to add about a thousand steps in just driving around.

    thank you everyone! I really appreciate it. I like that the fitbit syncs with mfp. I want to get counted for those steps i do daily and challenge myself too. :)
