Fitbit $100. is it worth it?

YES. DEFINITELY WORTH IT.

It lets you know how many calories you burn. When you go online and to the "Dashboard" and click on "Month", then you can see a chart of "Calories in vs. Calories out." As long as you burn more (out) than you take in (in), then you're going to lose weight.

The other bonus to that is: If you know how many calories you've had for the day and are still hungry at some point, then you can check your numbers to see if there's something you can have, and what your "limits" might be. (Hope that makes sense.)

It has a silent alarm feature that's nice. After I had surgery last year, I was on pain medication every 4-6 hours, and could set the alarm for my next round - that way I didn't have to think about it. Anytime after the buzz I could take the pain pill.

I use the alarm to get up in the morning too.

It has a place that tells you at your current pace, when you'll reach your goal weight too.

REALLY really like it. My mother wanted one for her mother's day, and I've gotten them for my sisters too - haven't had the change to give them to them yet, but will in the next couple of weeks.

I have the Fitbit One. It's taken me a month or two (and honestly, needed some nice weather to arrive) but I'm now getting really competitive with it. I've joined a group where we compete and although I'm sure I can't make the top of the list, I sure can improve over what I'm doing now. And you know what? It will only benefit me in the end. Well worth $100 to me if this is what it took to get me moving. And it was.

I got the Zip. love it

My man bought one for me 5 weeks ago.
I was already losing constantly, but I must say that the fitbit really motivated me, because I love to see how I can increase my activity level every week.
My average burn increased constantly these weeks, because now I find every excuse to do some more steps

Yes, I wouldn't have afford 100$ on it, but I'm SO happy that he did for me!

I'm on a pretty tight budget, but spent the 100$ on the Fitbit One. I'm not a bit sorry. I like that it tracks my steps taken, stairs climbed and sleep. Before I got the fitbit, I knew I had an unhealthy relationship with sleep, but I never knew how bad. I was averaging 5 hours a night and not loosing any weight. Now I average 7 hours per night and am finally starting to drop some weight. It helps me look at whole body health instead of focusing in on one particular area. For that reason alone, I recommend it.

I love my Fitbit Flex. I've had it for almost a year and I wear it everywhere, including the shower and the pool. It also counts the calories I burn when I do water aerobics or swim laps, so it's not just counting steps. Plus, if you sync it with MFP, it will automatically calculate your calories for the day. i feel it is more accurate than the Polar HRM I used to use during workouts.
And, there's a year warranty on it and customer service is excellent. The first one I had stopped holding a charge and they sent me a replacement in a matter of days.

I am the same way. I love my fitbit One. If I was to get a different one, I would get the force. I don't wear a watch at work because I don't like the band digging into my wrists when I type (which is all the time).

Tip - Don't wear it on a belt/waistband when shoveling snow. Lost two that way. If I don't have belt loops, I clip it on my bra.
