I am going to be receiving a fitbit Ultra soon and was wondering if any of you forum members use one. If so, what are your thoughts. Fitbit was generous in sponsoring my website. You can read the full story here:

I've lost 27 pounds and would like to lose another 17. I am hoping the fitbit will help me more accurately determine how many calories I burn each day.

Hope you all have a great weekend! :happy:

    I got a Fitbit a few weeks ago, and it's motivating me to move more! It seems to sync fine with MFP, as long as the food tracking is entered. :)

    I've only had mine since Monday, but I really like it! It is interesting to see how active I really am. Even on my sedentary days I still hit 10,000 steps!

    I just got my Fitbit last week and simply love it. I even paid for the Premium and enjoy the trainer part of it and the reports. I am also down 27 pounds and got 11 pounds to goal and I know I can do it.
    With myfitnesspal, I have been doing a program and it has helped me to really look at the reasons I wanted to lose weight and it works. I did 30 of the missions in april in a special challenge and put my name in a draw and won the whole program that I have started a month ago.

    Here's the website if anyone is interested: http://52wlm.com/how-it-works/

    Have a good day everyone:)

    I love my fitbit, have had to for almost two weeks and finding myself working hard to make my 10k minimum steps and my 10 flights minimum on stairs, lol.

    I use mine everyday and it motivates me to get in my 10,000 steps each day. I've never walked so much in my life. It's synced with MFP which works great too.

    I've had mine for 7 weeks and yesterday I finally hit 10,000+ steps. It can be motivating.

    There's an MFP group on FitBit with over 200 members. See where you rank: http://www.fitbit.com/group/229K6Z

    Can add me as well, my profile: http://www.fitbit.com/user/234HLP

    I have had a fitbit for almost a month now and it has helped get me moving more. My problem this past week has been remembering to wear it though. I forgot to grab it before work twice this week. I definitely feel guilty though after I get home from work and have maybe 2500 steps logged (I have a 99% desk job). I am usually inspired to work out those evenings whereas before I would just put it off too often.
