Fitbit Question

Hello All,

With surgery coming soon on the 26th, I see alot of people use a fitbit, I have looked on a couple websites but not sure which one would be best to get...Can you tell me which one you use.

Thanks

I use fitbit flex. Generally I like it, i don't put too much stock on the sleep part of the app. I don't feel it is accurate.

I don't care for the types that you wesr on your wrist. I have the One, and keep it in my pocket. I absolutely won't be without it. Best money I ever spent.

I also don't bother with the sleep tracker.

I've had the fitbit One. I like it-- but after forgetting it on my bra and washing it 2X's I gave up using it. I never bothered with the sleep monitoring thing. 

My kids have the fitbit Zip-- I like that one because it runs on a battery. While the charge on the fitbit one dos last a while-- I always got to a place where it died and I would never get around to charging it. 

I stopped using mine altogether when i got my iphone 6- I just relied on the step counter in that. Now I have a apple watch-- even better!

I bought an Fitbit HR Charge, mainly because it has a watch-like fastener. It is more secure than the other styles, in my opinion. With that said, I did have a Flex for a year and only temporarily lost it a few times. Places like Costco sell them cheaper, as well as some employers.

I do like the different functions the HR has, I like to try to identify patterns of I have a particularly challenging or great week.

I definitely think they're worth the investment!

I have a FitBit One, and I clip it to my bra.  I love it and it TOTALLY motivates me to get my steps in.  The battery lasts for over a week.  I wanted the Charge HR but I don't wear a watch nor do I want something on my wrist everyday.

I had one issue with my FitBit and they replaced it for free.  I can't even remember what happened.

I have the app on my iPhone and check my steps throughout the day, and strategize how to get more steps in...

I had a Jawbone Up Move that I wore on my bra and LOVED it! the battery is a 2032 that you can buy at the store and easily replace, but mine lasted 6-8 months before needing replaced. 

As I lost weight, it was no longer hidden on my bra, and you could see the lump from it through my clothes, so I got the Fitbit HR Charge. 

I love all of the functions of the HR Charge, especially being able to monitor my heart rate when i'm working out. BUT the battery only lasts 1 and a 1/2- 2 days before needing a 3 hour charge with a special cord. If they used a regular micro USB like all of our phones and everything else I wouldn't care because I could charge it anywhere, but the one it has is fitbit specific and I leave it at home so I won't lose it, so if it dies while I'm out, I lose my data until I can get home to charge it for 3 hours. It's frustrating, but I do like its functions. 

If you don't need a HR monitor, I'd highly recommend the Jawbone Up Move. It had all of the other functions and was only about $30, no charging battery needed. 

Check ebay - I bought a charger for my HR for close to nothing. I keep on in my house one in office or when I travel. 

Thanks! That would help

I just got the HR... I love it so far... it's larger so if bracelets bug you maybe go for the flex (thinner/smaller) or one (non wrist version) good chart for comparison: https://www.fitbit.com/compare 

It's interesting info and fun still figuring out all the bells and whistles.. I was sick last week so it made me sad I couldn't get all my steps in.
