Hi everyone,

I have been using a fitbit for sometime, but here lately I have had a string of bad luck and keep losing them! I was wondering if anyone used a similar device that would link up to MFP but would give me steps, calories burned, etc.? I was thinking maybe something that is like a watch? Any advice would be welcome!

  • I've used Fitbit for a couple of years and like it. Fitbit is coming out with a bracelet type device sometime this spring. I'm hoping to get one to since my current Fibit is started to crack.

    Bodymedia....you won't lose it if you keep it strapped to your arm! I love mine!

    Do you know when in the spring it is supposed to come out? I have been without now for a few weeks and I am starting back up with my old habits. :(

    I recently lost my Fitbit too.. :sad: I think it's somewhere in my apartment, but if I can't find it, I'm gonna look into the bracelet type too. On the Fitbit website, it says that the Flex is supposed to be out in March.

    The Bodymedia thing is huge.

    You might want to try a wrist-mounted device, like a Nike Fuelband or Jawbone Up.

    Fitbit also has the wrist-mounted Flex coming out in a month or two as well
