FITBIT answers needed

From what I can tell, the One and the Flex track the same things, but the Flex is worn as a bracelet while the One has a clip for your pocket, bra, or whatever. The One shows all of your stats (your "flower" that grows as you are more active, steps, floors climbed, distance, calories, and current time). I think the Flex only has lights that light up similar to the flower on the One.

I use the Fitbit website in conjunction with MFP. I track food on MFP and activity on Fitbit. They both have good graphs, but I like the graphs on Fitbit better. I do like how they sync together (and are free).

The sleep info on the Fitbit site is kind of cool. I'm not sure what exactly to do with it, but it is fun to watch.

I bought the Fitbit one about a week and 1/2 ago and I love it! I didn't want to wear a braclet and it doesn't show you any stats on it which hte fitbit one does. It really does challenge you to move. Yesterday evening I didn't go to the gym cause I was busy but was determined to get my 10,000 or more steps in so I was walking in place when cooking dinner! Made the 10,000 steps and have already earned my 50 miles badge since getting it on 1/13/13! I do manually put in exercise from the gym like stationary bike and ellipitical since it doesn't register that exercise. I have MFP synced with Fitbit also.
I have only tracked my sleep one night and don't use that much. I just put my Fitit one on my night stand when I go to bed and pick it up when I wake up every morning.

I agree with everyone else. I have a One and positively adore it. Not having a screen would bother me, and also a bracelet would not go with a lot of my wardrobe. And I already wear my Nike+ Sportband (bracelet) when I run, so two would be a pain.

Whatever you decide, I am sure you will love it!

I've got the One and I LOVE it. I have it set up to sync with MFP. Instead of logging exercises I just use the FitBit adjustment that it gives me. For workouts at home I switch it to 'stop watch mode' so the tracking is a little more sensitive and my workout is marked more clearly when I look at my data on FitBit's website.

For me I wouldn't wear the Flex. I just don't like bracelets and such plus my daughter would see it and want to play with it (She's 20 months so she wants to play with everthing). If I'd wanted a wrist tracker I would have gotten a Nike + or a Jawbone Up.

One of my favorite features on the One is the screen that I can use to check my stats during the day. Since my daughter also destroyed my watch band I use it to check the time. I just clip it to my bra and I'm good to go. Half the time I forget it's even there during the day it's so tiny.

Besides not having a screen, which would be the deal breaker for me right there, the Flex doesn't track stairs. I have a small house and the streets around my house are far to busy to feel safe walking with my daughter; so instead of setting a daily step goal for myself I switched my FitBit's goals to flights of stairs instead. The Flex wouldn't track this so that would kind of be an issue.

I'd stick with the One. If you really want a tracker to wear on your wrist you can always just wear the band is comes with for when you're sleeping all day. Heck when I forgot my sleep band at my parents I use the arm band from an old MP3 player and clipped the One to that. At least that way you can have the best of both worlds instead of being stuck with just a wrist band.

Plus a One you can order now and have in a few days. The Flex is releasing Sping 2013 with no set date of when that might be.

I just ordered my One today! I can't wait to use it when it gets here. I'm so excited that it syncs with MFP.
