Fitbit?

I love my Fitbit One. I love how easily it syncs with MFP and makes the calorie adjustments based on my normal level of activity daily.

I've had a fitbit since soon after the company started (about 3 years ago). I love it and couldn't imagine not having it. I joined MFP after having fitbit for awhile so I don't really know MFP without my fitbit. I think it's great because I don't have to log things into MFP - fitbit just syncs and MFP adjusts.

I'm pretty impressed. Was surprised with just how well it tracks with MFP's guesstimates for squash so now I just go with the Fitbit calc. Pretty much the only exercise I put in separately is my SCUBA diving and by putting in the times MFP adjusts accordingly.

The only thing I found myself doing after the first week or so was changing my activity level in the MFP profile from sedentary to active so that I can plan my meals better at the beginning of the day (I have a fairly aggressive target) rather than just discovering it was okay to have a big dinner after smaller meals earlier on. All it means is that I have to do more serious exercise to get credit calories as opposed to getting lots of credit just for walking around when I was set to sedentary. This will obviously depend on your age, size and how many steps you do per day (I seem to do a minimum of 6000).

I also found my trial of Fitbit's premium service after one week of use gave me some interesting insights (one thing that led me to change my activity profile after finding out I was a lot more active than I'd given myself credit for relative to Joe Blow) but I'm not sure I'm prepared to splurge $60 for it though.

Next step will be the Fitbit Aria after my wife has our second baby and we can work on our weight loss together (Aria is not recommended for us with pregnant women because of the technology used to calculate body fat %)
