Fitbit - easy product, great motivation!
In the past two years I have met my weight loss goal and have lost over 15kgs. In that two years I also fell pregnant and had my daughter! I used the Fitbit in conjunction with MyFitnessPal in order to keep track of what I ate and how much as well as how much exercise I was doing. For me, this made everything easier than previous attempts at losing weight and I got the results I wanted.

Such a motivating product
I did find that the flex didn't accurately track my steps while pushing my kids in the pram, so I sold the flex and bought a one. The one is great and also has the added feature of tracking floors ascended. I live in a 2 storey house so was interesting to know how many times I went upstairs.
The only way I didn't find the one superior to the flex was the sleep monitor. I al often forgetting to put the sleep band on at night.

2nd on the leader board :)
I have started to go out for a half hour walk as soon as the kids are in bed, and it feels great, reminds me of my days pre-kids when I would go out for a run. I am tempted to crack into a jog (hang on, maybe I should be that enthusiastic).
I spent the day cleaning our old house, and I am sadly disappointed that the FitBit can't register 4 hours of sweeping, mopping and vacuuming. All that work actually equates to very little steps :( oh well, I'll just have to head out for that evening walk and stretch all my aching muscles.
Thank you FitBit for getting me out and about again.
6:32 pm
absolutely brilliant
Also love how it connects with My fitnesspal. Both aps work together so only have to enter the information once. I have recommended it to all my friends and family. Its hard to imagine life without it.

Woo Hoo! My first 20 000 step day!
We'd had such a lovely day and it hadn't been a goal to walk that many steps but we just walked where we would previously have driven. I wasn't sore and bubby just snoozed in the pram while we took in the sights and talked.
Thanks fitbit! I can't remember the last time we were in town and not spending the whole time thinking about parking, and I got a badge to boot!

Obsessed - in a not psycho way hopefully :P

Counting Steps with fitbit and my Little Man!
One of the main goals I have set for myself since hearing about and using the fitbit One, is that I would be an active mum for my little fella. Well now that he's up and about, I get to enjoy it without feeling guilty because I have a head start already on achieving my "Moving Mum" goal!
Looking forward to my family taking these big steps together (with fitbit of course)!
8:18 pm
Drumroll please......
I can't stress enough how awesome this is considering I haven't made any serious life changes, just taking the stairs more, logging my food and watching those steps accumulate. The fitbit has been all I wanted and more! Hubby's getting one for his birthday next month so we'll be competing for the highest number of steps! Nothing wrong with a little healthy competition, come to think of it, I might give him his present a little early so we can get stuck into it!

Time to step things up a knotch
It took very little time (it is not a very big house), but really made a difference. Now to work out how to get a few more "active minutes" into the day.
I can totally say that FitBit is keeping me motivated and inspiring me to work more incidental exercise into my day.

Fitbit gave me the motivation and boost I needed!
The FitBit is very easy to set up and very easy to sync to your computer etc. When I first bought one it didn't connect to my mobile as it was an older model but now it does.
They are very comfortable to wear and most of the time I don't even realise I'm wearing it! Every so often it digs in if I'm bending the wrong way or something but so would anything you wore on your belt!
I admit I have been a bit slack recently but am hoping to sign up for the walk again and will need to start working on my fitness etc and my FitBit can certainly help me with that.
The picture is of me after walking the 10km! The 10km was fine....the rain and freezing weather wasn't!

Love it
The sleep pattern has been the most interesting - you can set the device to measure very sensitively (which picks up all movement) or less sensitively. The device has provided info which has been incredibly useful for my doctor and I in discussing my CFS.
The negatives - the device comes with a large and small wristband - but you would need a teeny tiny wrist to fit the small wristband. The unit is not compatible with android phones. Apart from the steps tracker and the sleep tracker most of the rest of the application rely on you inputting data - too much effort involved to make it useful. The wristband is not very well made, with a lifespan ranging from a few days to a few months. Battery life is short (1 week) which requires removing the wristband to recharge the unit, and then the joys of trying to put the wristband back on.
For the price however it provides what I want it to do, so overall very happy with it.

Fantastic I love my fitbit
The only down side I have is when driving if I go over a bump it puts itself in sleep mode which is annoying.

Easy to use, easy to wear

I LOVE IT
I got it, as I wanted to lose weight, but also to see how active I truly was ( as I am a working mum I thought I would blitz it).. truth.. even though I was running after a 3 year old I wasn't doing 10,000 steps a day.. so I embarked on doing at last 10,000 steps a day. in my lunch hour, I would go for a walk, at night I would do a few laps up and down my staircase.. this has defiantly helped e as I have lost over 3 kg already just by doing that little bit extra everyday.. its a MUST have for busy mums
12:30 pm
Not too happy
Now that school is back I cannot wear my fit bit to walk to school because while I push the pram my fitbit turns itself on and off sleep mode constantly. Any sort of vibration will turn it on. When I drive my fitbit counts steps and when Im riding or using other gym equipment the fitbit doesnt count.
I really think it needs some sort of hear rate monitor to recognise workouts as that would motivate me more then just steps counted.
I still find it very hard to use the food bank as it doesnt have most of the foods I eat and I find it hard to sleep with when its hot.
I have lost most of the weight I wanted to before surgery, I think the fit bit helped get me ontop of that because I had that as a reason to get me going and it was exciting
