    I've had mine for just a week and am loving it so for. It actually makes me move more in order to meet my daily goals. It's a purchase worth while.

    I got mine about 6 months ago from completing a healthy program at work, I find that it does a great job of tracking things and really keeps me motivated. I check it when I go to the bathroom, then I know throughout the day if I need to maybe take a longer way back to my desk or take a walk at lunch to help increase my activity.

    I have had mine since January, and at first I was debating on sending it back just because I was wanting to know the calorie burn for other exercies that the fb didn't pick up. But I decided against the HRM, and choose to keep my little purple buddy :) I have grown to love it !!

    I got mine two weeks ago. Lost it after 5 days .... it popped off somewhere. I think it doesn't hold onto a pocket or a belt like it should and I don't wear a bra (probably the ideal place) since cross dressing went out of fashion. I tried to live without it for 3 days and realized that this was a device made for me (other than the tendency to pop off my clothes). I got another one ... showed it to a friend at breakfast and he said - Oh yeah, there was one out in the street. I didn't know what it was so I tossed it in the trash. He went through his trash and found it. So I ended up with two. I have a 'cheat' now that keeps my Fitbit from falling out.
