I decided on the body media Its 10 per month I wanted to be able to track my sleep calories and steps I think body media is the only one that does all of this Plus JM recommends body media too0

I have the fitbit, 0 a month unless you want the preferred membership that adds reporting. It tracks steps, flights of stairs and sleep and it also synchs with MFP. I love it.0

I have a FitBit. It works very well with MFP. I use it all the time, even during sleep. It tracks all exercises and sedentary calories being burned. It even leaves messages for motivational purposes.0

Fitbit is $99 to buy and has no monthly fee. It tracks sleep, calories, activity levels, steps, mileage, flights of stairs, etc. It's fantastic and very worth the money.0

I have a fitbit, too. Love it!0

i want a fitbit but cant afford one :sad:0

I have the fitbit ultra too... I agree with everyone above - I love it!0

I have a body media. I bought this before MFP started syncing with Fitbit. Probably if I had to do it over again I'd use Fitbit because of MFP.
However, the bodymedia gives a very accurate account of total calories burned--more accurate than Fitbit (is my understanding). It's the same thing as Bodybugg. Bodybugg is biggest loser's brand.
My only complaint is that you have to wear it on your arm, so unless you have on baggy sleeves, everyone knows you are wearing it.0 -

No extra fee. :-)0 -
My mind is telling me that I have GOT to buy a fitbit!!!0

I have the bodybugg (larger than the bodymedia) and I really like it. It straps onto my upper arm and I forget about it. I don't have to hit any buttons and it tracks everything I do. I have a very accurate picture of what I do in 24hrs. It is a bit price so I might suggest the bodymedia since it is a little cheaper. It doesn't sync with MFP but I just use it like a HRM to add exercise0

THANKS!! Been wanting to get one....finally this weekend!!! YAY!!0

DW & I both have FitBits, she did some major research before getting one and the fact that FitBit doesn't have a monthly charge and it syncs with MFP are huge bonuses.0

I have a Fitbit and LOVE IT!!!! It has helped me a lot with my weight lost so far.0

Love my fitbit!0

I have the fitbit and love it so much I bought one for my cousin, which she then lost (they are small). I looked, and I found a replacement for $30 on Craigslist. Amazon sells them for $89.
It has really made me move around more. I like that I walk enough stairs to = the world's tallest pencil, the statue of liberty, etc. I even park further away from the office to get extra points and work hard to be the one in my group with the most steps. Huge fan of fitbit. Plus, no fee after. They are also coming out with a wireless scale later this year that tracks everything including your water mass (or something along those lines) and sends it directly to the interwebs so you can track it and analyze the information.0
