Hi

I've just joined back and feel really positive. We are thinking of getting a Fitbit Surge: any feedback? We didn't do well with Fuelband, as the Nike broke.

Looking forward to meeting people on here!

Good luck all

James

    All Fitbits calculate your TDEE & sync with MFP. Which one you choose is entirely a matter of personal preference.

    That's an endorsement! If our Prime Minister had one, I'd think the company were part of the dark side!

    I assumed getting a Fitbit was the first lady's idea. (She's done a lot of work encouraging kids to eat better & be more active.)

    People actually suggested it was a national security risk for the president to wear a GPS tracker.

    I've had the basic band and upgraded to the charge hr, and my experience has been great using Fitbit. I wouldnt hesitate to get the surge but you probably already know that! Have fun...

    I have the Fitbit Flex. It was a birthday gift from one of my dojo mates. Now I would feel lost without it.

    I have a Fitbit Zip. Lost about 50 pounds over 16 months by walking a lot and cutting down on some foods. Need to lose about 15 more and have been stuck for a few months despite the exercise. I am hoping MFP will help me pay more attention to what I am eating. I love my Fitbit! I wouldn't have lost weight w/o it.

    My wife and I are both getting the surge. We can't wait as we know it will push us to do more each week!
