Heart Rate Monitor and Fitness tracker ?

I've had a polar FT4 for 8 months, I use it 5-6 days/week and sometimes multiple times per day. I love knowing the most accurate count for my workouts. I only use intentional exercise (or major projects, like we're in the middle of completely gutting our basement and garage to refinish) and it has been invaluable in my success. I can see my burns decreasing as I get more fit and I also see patterns when I compare similar workouts and intensity levels. It was a great investment. I got mine on heartratemonitorsusa.com and they have a promotion JS10DW for 10% off right now. They also offer pretty quick free shipping! Good luck!0

I use a Garmin ForeRunner 305 :-). It's discontinued, big, bulky, but it does the job of accurately counting my calories and tracking my runs via GPS! I'm interested in switching to a FitBit after this one has run its course. I keep hearing good things about them.0

Does anyone know of a Heart Rate Sensor / Monitor that doesn't strap across the chest? I find this very uncomfortable to do due to Lupus / fibromyalgia complications and am wondering if I can get a different type of sensor strapping point?0

The basis is a fitness tracker with a built in heart rate monitor, and the fitbit force isn't that accurate.0

Fitbit is 2/3 of all activity trackers sold, so it can't be that inaccurate. I lost a lot of weight with a Classic Fitbit and it was accurate for me.0
