Fitness trackers, Is it worth it?

My fitbit is the *kitten*. Best gift I ever got. And you just learn so much while using it. Inbox me if you have any questions.

Love my Fitbit One. Hubby's Polar Loop is also pretty neat. Do some research. Different brands/models have different features. For me, its been very useful to have a 'measure' of my daily activity level.

I've had fitbit over a year. The flex. Yes it's fun to challenge friends. But really is just a pedometer. I wouldn't spend the money again. It's fine for daily walking around counting steps but I got fat doing daily walking around. I use Endomondo on my phone to track serious walks or jogs.

I think so. I've had my fitbit for a year and a half.
I also gained weight since I had it, but now that I'm tracking, I find it really useful to know how active I am on certain days. Usually people over-approximate when they log exercise I feel like it gives me a more consistent measure.
You don't need it, but if you're the kind of person who likes #s and data like I do, you'll find it a good tool to help you.

Love my fitbit flex.

I love my polar loop! I can pair it with a HRM for workouts and it has a display screen.

So I have no internet on my smart phone=--to darn expensive up here in Canada!!! So does the Vivo work like the Garmen on satellite--so you just charge and use or have to pay for internet or wifi

I love my fitbit one. It keeps me motivated and moving.

I just got the up24 and really like it so far. I like that it tracks my sleep patterns and keeps track of how much I'm moving. I sync it to MFP so it imports my daily food log into the app. And I like how it reminds you to move and keeps track of your steps. I got a pretty decent deal on amazon so I'm pretty happy with it.

I have a fitbit charge hr. I love it.

My whole family and many friends wear fitbit, so we compete for steps which is fun.

The hr feature makes tracking cardio automatic. I find it acceptably accurate.

I also prefer having a display. I've gotten used to having a watch again. I like the caller ID feature, and never use audible ring tones anymore. I do wish it had text notifications too though.

I have the fitbit charge HR. I am amazed!! The integration with my fitness pal is awesome!

I looked at a bunch of different ones before I bought my Up band. Its more flexible than the other bands so I found it more comfortable to wear on a daily basis. After calibrating it to my stride I found its relatively accurate to my step count. I like it tracks my sleep patterns as well. I have it synced to mfp and its nice it automatically updates my calorie deficit when it uploads the exercise. I also use it to help train for a 5k with a running app too! I'd buy it again

I couldn't live without my fitbit; it is only a simple one, but I can see how many calories I'm burning a day so I can make sure I eat at a decent deficit.

I got the Garmin Vivofit and i absolutely love it. Never take it off.

It's a great way to see how much i move or don't move. It's giving me a better understanding of my exercise burns. The steps part is great because i really wanted to at least get up and move more. It makes it sort of competitive with strangers so i don't feel judged. There are issues once in a while with the software but eventually it catches up.

Can't say anything about accuracy but now i am seeing things better because i don't have to wait for the scale to keep moving or not move. Compared to what i was doing before it is at least an improvement.

I got it on sale on amazon, free shipping and i used a credit card with rewards so i earned a few extra dollars off in the end.

I am content with it for now. I might upgrade to a newer version later so that i can pass this one along to another family member but there is no rush. Overall i'm thrilled with it.
