I had a bodybugg, but now I am not able to locate it! If you have a fitbit, what do you think of it? Does it work really well?

    I've been looking at these but reluctant to buy one if they aren't all they are cracked up to be as they are a lot of money.

    DW and I have been using FitBits for a few weeks now and we are loving them. They have been a huge help and the major advantage they have over the Body Bug is that you don't have a monthly fee to pay. I highly recommend the FitBit.

    Search under groups for Fitbit and there is a group on here! Lots of good information on there! I have one and love it! Good luck!

    Love mine! It shows you right there in black and white if you ever question why you aren't losing.

    Haven't had mine but a few days but it is addictive! Challenging myself to do more and burn more calories each day. What I really like is it automatically syncs to MFP. In my opinion well worth the money.

    I love mine, motivates me to do more and makes me realize how much I really am burning every day, a lot more than I previously thought!

    I just received mine last week and so far, I really like it! Takes a bit of figuring out, but it's not rocket science...and it's fun to see how my day unfolds!

    I've had one for amout a month and I agree with PP... It is a new way to see your daily activity... You really get a feel for what your activity level is really like... I find it addictive and motivating. It took me a couple of days to understand how fitbit and MFP work together, but now it's seamless.

    If you link MFP to your fitbit, only use MFP to log your food and exercise (aside from using the start/stop feature on the actual fitbit to track workouts)... it will send the data back to fitbit and fitbit will send your activity levels to MFP... it's really outstanding, IMO.

    LOVE fitbit! It forces me to get up and walk around/take the stairs just so I can see my progress!

    I ordered one last week on Amazon for $90, its the Ultra Fitbit. I jus got it Friday and used it yesterday, it really motivated me to get off my behind and do some walking. Havent figured it all out yet but will definately be reading the above mentioned boards.
