Do you love your fitbit?

I love my One--have been using it steadily since I got it in February, and it really helps me get a better idea of how much I'm burning (for example, it made me realize that I was not "sedentary" despite having a desk job.) Considered waiting until the Flex came out, then remembered that I hate things around my wrists, so that was sort of a dealbreaker.

i had a fitbit one, it was fun for a little while but i found that i prefer to use my HRM...after a few months i sold it on amazon.

( It is a neat little gadget, i enjoyed the distance tracking aspect & the sleep monitoring. I can see why so many people like it but it just wasn't for me in the long run....Having to remember to put it on in the mornings & again after i showered got old. Plus the calorie burn was not matching up to my HRM & i had syncing problems. I also was annoyed by the phantom steps it would log when i was driving.)

That's my HUGE issue. Watches/etc. around my wrists tend to trigger claustrophobic attacks.

Two friends from work got zips last spring and raved about it. I just got mine a month ago and love it, love it, love it. My husband has a couple of HRMs that he's offered to lend me, but I'm just comfortable with my zip.

I have a zip and I like it. It's small, simple, syncs with my phone so I don't have to turn the computer on every day.
I don't exercise hard out enough to need a HRM, and it also doesn't do everything I *don't* need (like I wasn't interested in the sleep tracking)
I like that it sits on my pocket securely, and I don't have to have a thing on my arm or whatever.
I believe it underestimates my total burn as I stand still/only move upper body or take just a step or two at a time at work, and it doesn't seem to register that and thinks I'm not walking so I must be sitting.
But overall I am happy with it. I lost my first one and bought another, so that's a good indication.

I have a one and I love it! I didn't want a flex because I'm a baker so I'm constantly using my hands/arms which I was worried would count as steps plus the one is far more discrete

I have the Fitbit Ultra and the Fitbit One. The One is still in the box. I'm using the Ultra at the moment since you can use one Fitbit at a time to track with. Don't regret it one moment having the Fitbit device. It was an eye-opener on my activity (more active than I thought), and it helps me know where I stand for steps, flights of stairs, calories burned and other things.

I got my at New Years and LOVE IT. Remember it is a pedometer not a magic bullet - I use a HRM for exercise other than walking but the most valuable thing to me is that the Fitbit keeps me accountable to my commitment to myself and my heart to do a minimum of 10,000 steps a day. My quality of life is well improved - in that it makes me get away from my computer and report writing etc and out for walks!

I've had my fitbit for a couple of months and I still adore it. I really feel that it has made my weightloss journey easier. Best $100 I've ever spent!

I love my One bc its only around my wrist at night, the rest of the time its clipped to my bra and you can't even tell it's there. Its really useful, I think. I found that most days I burn a little more than MFP projects for my lifestyle, but less than MFP projects for say "walking at incline for 10 min" or other entries. I use it in tandem with an HRM for heavy work outs.

My wife has a Fitbit Flex, I have a Jawbone UP. Both work quite well and having it there on your wrist is if anything a reminder to get to stepping more often. We both have an almost addictive tendency to get our steps up for the day and beat each other but we've noticed the Flex seems to give my wife a lot more steps in an average day than my UP does when we've both been out together for a few hours and compare our numbers.

Ok ramblings aside, I love having my activity tracker. It really does a great job in letting you know how you're doing throughout the day aside from just your daily workouts. The sleep tracking is a novelty as I dont know how accurate it really is but its interesting to look at.

wouldn't leave home without it!! Actually, I only take it off long enough to charge it. I highly recommend it for anyone who whats to see how their body is working.

I have the ONE. There are a couple of flaws with the Flex that I can't get over. One you need to move your arms for it to work. If you push a cart or stroller it doesn't work. It doesn't count number of flights of steps and last but not least there is nothing but stars on the screen, I dont push anything often but that feature annoys me. I LOVE that my One tells me the number of the flights of steps I take in a day.. because I do take the stairs everywhere! I have to be able to see exactly what ive done so when i go to my fitbit device and hit that button I like seeing 16000 steps (what it says right now) and all the other info that it tells me. I do not want to guess or go to the website all the time. However, if you swim I would think this would be perfect! It is fully waterproof where my one is slightly water proof.

Those who have the FitBit, (I've read through the posts) is the fitbit accurate as far as calories burned?

I've had a Zip for about a month now and it's a fun toy. I clip in inside my bra and just forget about it until I get home from work. It's interesting to see how many steps I take in a day and sometimes I push a bit further than a normally would to reach the next 1,000. The calorie burn seems to be about right for day to day movement but I still wear my HRM for running and log it separately.
