Anyone using a Fitbit or Calorie tracker???

I'm curious about this as well.....

I am thinking of getting something too...there was another post earlier so I am looking forward to more input.

I've been using the Fitbit One for the last month and I love it! You can check it during the day to see how you're doing with your step count, calories burned and stairs climbed. You can also keep track of your sleep habits and it shows you how many minutes it took to fall asleep, how many times you woke, and how efficient your sleep was. It's been a great help to me in moving towards my weight loss goals!

i use the fitbit and i love it - i have the ultra. and i like it because i feel it give a more accurate picture of my activity level.
using this i can set my settings to sedentary and then i get calorie credits for my true activity level for that day - before i had it i had it set to fairly active - but in actuallity some days i am very active, and other days i am really not active at all, so now the amount i can eat each day more clearly reflects that.

i also feel taht it pushes me to move more, many nights when i am getting ready to go to bed and i look at it and see i am fairly close to 10000 steps or another goal i will do a quick workout so i can go to bed having met my goals.

I love my Fitbit! I got mine back in August 2012 and haven't looked back. It has motivated me immensely. On a good day I will hit 6500 steps before my work day is done. Then I come home and get to moving so that I can reach my 5 miles per day goal.
It really has made me focus more on being active throughout the day. I teach and am already moving a lot but now I actively look for ways to earn more steps. Plus, I love competing with my friends to see who has the highest step average. It's great!

I am disappointed I really only like it for my sleep tracking. But I already knew my activity level. I don't find it that accurate for calories. I wear a heart rate monitor for calorie burn and the fit bit doesn't take heart rate into consideration. I will wake in the am and it shows I've already taken 50 steps. It counts steps while driving. It also counts floors when I haven't done any steps. I don't find the data or feedback any more useful than simply a fun tool to entertain myself with.

I have had the bodymedia link for almost a week and since it was such an investment I did my research because I thought I was dead set on the fitbit one. I went with the link and I am enjoying it a lot. and the research is there to back up the accuracy which was important to me. I suggest going to the bodymedia website and comparing all the different brands and the different options offered by bodymedia. I chose the link since it has an app for keeping up on the go with my crazy work schedule, and you can sync it with your fitness pal account and continue logging your food with a way your comfortable with. Happy choosing, good luck!

If you wanted the smaller Core model you can buy an optional display. There is a new model coming out -the Core 2 which is smaller and links to the app.
