Hi! I'm looking to buy a fitness band but heard so many different reviews! One of the requirements I want is one that can send me reminders when I have been sitting too long because I sit at my job all day! Recommendations please! Thanks!

Many activity trackers can fulfill that requirement--

Fitbits tend to be good daily activity trackers. If you also want to track workout calories burned, consider a unit from another vendor such as Garmin (if you workout more outdoors) or Polar (if you workout more in gyms) with a heart rate monitor and chest strap.
