Just wondering how popular Jawbone, Fitbit or other devices are. Are there any recommendations on using one over another? Do you feel that they help you lose weight?

    I use the fitbit one and love it!! Supposedly there are a couple new devices coming out from them soon and I plan on upgrading. I've lost 10+ pounds since using it in addition to mfp. =)

    I have a fitbit flex and I also use the Polar H7 for when I'm exercising to see the calorie burns per each exercise for accuracy.

    I have a Jawbone Up24. It is a huge encouragement to keep moving. I also use a Polar FT7 to track calories burned during workouts.

    I used to have a Fitbit Force but did not like how the company handled the recall that was out on it.. I will not be going back to any Fitbit product. I wear a Polar FT60 when I work out and absolutely love it. Highly suggest Polar products.

    I currently have a Jawbone, but I'm about to take it back and get a Fitbit. Too many problems with syncing, and when I contact them it's always, "We'll have a fix in the next couple of days" then nothing.

    I have the Orbit and use it with Runtastic it syncs with MFP. They have quite a few apps to integrate with my smart phone. Ive been happy.

    I use a FitBit Zip and I love it. It called me out on how inactive I really was. It motivated me so much. It got me walking more, and now I walk an hour a day, at least 4 days a week. I know now that if I want to eat more, I need to move more. I got the cheaper one, the Zip, even though everyone else recommended the Flex (double the price), but the Zip is suiting me just fine.
