Now mine keeps unlinking itself!

following because I'm having the same issue. I will stop resyncing. MFP has my steps now but I'm not getting credit for it. Fitbit is still not showing any food logged. Ugghhh!

I'm glad I'm not alone! Mine started doing this yesterday afternoon and have unlinked and linked. It's fine when I first link them back but then stops. I tried the christabenjamin's instructions but it didn't work :(

Ah, interesting. I just did that and it did adjust. I had at first used the stopwatch on the fitbit but like I said it underestimated my heart rate so the calories seemed low. Definitely going to take some tweaking as I use it. Thanks!

So, given I heard a rumor that the UP3 may not even happen now I decided to go to Walmart and try the Charge HR. I am day 2 into it and I have to say I'm really liking it. So far everything seems accurate. Heartrate is right on target. I'm not sure on steps but it said 5200 steps yesterday and I see that as about right. My…

Supposedly UP3 will learn your activity so it doesn't have to be a steady state. I wanted to know my sleep cycles and I believe the UP3 is the only one that is supposed to do it. I pre-ordered on December 1 but am still waiting for it :/ Hoping it's worth the wait.

I emailed Jawbone again and actually received a phone call. I had asked why I hadn't been offered the discount or a Move and she said because my ship date is still in tact (6-7 weeks). It was those that had pre-ordered that were possibly supposed to ship before Christmas. We shall see...

Thank you for the review! I have pre-ordered the UP3 but am debating on canceling it and getting this one. Do you just manually log your steps into MFP?

Pika, yes I did, on December 1.

I find this interesting because I contacted Jawbone via email today and they told me they are not offering any incentives due to the delay and that there is no delay. The preorders that originally said 4-5 weeks for shipping should be notified soon. :neutral_face:

Which one are you referring to? The Charge HR?

The two things I like about the UP3 is that it will eventually be able to monitor hydration levels and stress levels. I'm still looking at others but probably will not cancel my pre-order.

I agree, me too. That is going to be in future updates so I'm willing to wait. PikaKnight, I had received an email saying it would ship after the launch date of Dec. 22 but then had read somewhere that now it won't be released until mid-January because of issues so I was curious if they had said what the issues were.

Thanks frojive! I keep trying to justify getting another one because I really wanted to start the new year off right with the tracker but I keep coming back to the UP3. Did they tell you why the delay?

I keep debating. The one thing I keep reading about on the fitbit ones is that you have to wear it higher up on your wrist, especially if you have small wrists, which I do. The Up3 seems to have everything I want, I don't want something bulky and this one seems smaller. I'm just so impatient. :#

Thanks! I'll look more into it :)

I just saw somewhere that now it will be mid January for the UP3, which worries me. I guess that just means I have more time to research. :/ I have been reading the Charge HR reviews and so far it seems more negative than positive. I'm really hoping the UP3 ships sooner than later.

I am not that concerned with the HRM to do a chest strap. Sometimes I like being the guinea pig :)

Thanks everyone! I decided I'm keeping my pre-order for the UP3 because in reading some things I like the fact of the future updates. But, I'm going to continue to research the other two in case I change my mind since the UP3 won't ship until Dec.22 and they have a 60 day money back guarantee. Thanks for the heads up…

I read several reviews that the Fitbit Charge and Myfitness pal don't sync correctly and results in it being logged as food vs exercise and that the screen scratches easily?

Thanks! I may be canceling my UP3. I kind of beginning to like the charge and it's cheaper! Still kind of like the peak though. But..the UP3 may be totally out of the question. I didn't think I'd care about any sort of display but I may!

NM, I see from their website it is automatic. So it lets you set goals, etc and notifies you when you need to get moving. Eventhough it's big I kind of like all the features of the Peak.

So, cindy, do you find it pretty accurate. It has an alarm and you don't have to manually push a button for sleep? Does it track all activity (I don't know that any of them do) but curious since I use an elliptical a lot.

Now I'm wondering if I really need the HR portion lol. I didn't care about it at first but when I pre-ordered the UP3 I thought it was a nice touch. Fitbit Charge looks nice too.

Good to know. I have read that Jawbone Customer Service is lacking. When is Charge HR supposed to be available?

I forgot about that one! That's in the mix too then but not sure I really want caller ID. I had read reviews about people not liking fitbit because they quit after a couple months? I know this will be a newer one but that worries me.

Garmin Vivosmart is also on the list :)

I am newbie on the community, didn't really utilize the website (although I want to now). A friend of mine turned me onto Body by Vi. I was skeptical because like previous posters, what happens when you stop them. However, I decided to try it for a month and re-evaluate and I can now say, it has changed my lifestyle. I…

Thanks everyone! I really appreciate it! I'm aiming for 1700 and going to see how it goes.

Very true. So, I wonder which calories I should add it to, the fitness pal ones, which will only make it 1700 or to one of the ones edieting had?
