Fitbit anyone?

Question

So my question is, do you own a fitibit and has it helped?

Poll- 
Yes 1 = yes, worked well
Yes 2= yes I own one, hasn't worked
Yes 3= owned one, no longer use it

Okay so I'm looking to lose weight and all of my friends have the Fitbit! For those who don't know what I'm talking about it's the wearable fitness bracelet that counts steps, measures heart rate.. a lot of things.

I just wanna know who has one and it's actually helped you lose weight? They are expensive and so I don't want to spend all that money if it's rubbish!

Thank you!

Answer

In my opinion, the best part about having a Fitbit are the competitions you can do between friends. We always do a weekly one and it definitely makes me more aware of how much I'm moving and forces me to get up and move more. It's definitely motivating and if you have others that have them it can definitely be a fun thing that you do together to get healthy. I'd definitely recommend it!

Answer

I have the Fitbit Alta 
It tracks my sleep so I can make sure I'm getting enough and steps etc. once I go on bedrest it's going to also help to make sure I'm not getting up too much!

Answer

I owned two of them both broke within first year. They don't help they track. So they won't make you lose weight but will tell you how many steps you take. Charge HR can tell you how long you where in areas more prone to fat burning but to me doesn't do much besides track. So could help u reach goals. I only got one because I was stationed in Korea and walked everywhere and was curious how far I walked a day.

Answer

I got one for New Year's this year. It's encouraged me to be more active, but I haven't really lost weight, which sucks because I've been eating better too. :(

Answer

I have a Fitbit One & I love it! It's a great motivator, & I also use it for sleep tracking.

Answer

My mom uses her Fitbit... she loves it and she likes the alert she gets telling her she meet her goals... my mom works at the international airport and always was wondering how far she walked with her Fitbit and the change of her eating habits she lost a lot of weight she also has sleep apnea and narcolepsy, the drs wanted her to monitor how long she sleeps in a day so they can adjusting her medication but it was very difficult for her cause she can literally fall asleep in the middle of a conversation

Answer

I have a Fitbit but it just sits on my counter for the most part. Try downloading "My fitness pal". I have an iPhone 5s and it tracks my steps for me with no watch or wristband. I've downloaded it a few times over the years but finally stuck with it since January... I've lost almost 10 pounds. I exercise lightly (walks, hike when it's warm) but I don't go to a gym. It helps me stay honest with myself and make healthy choices.

Even today I was going to have a second helping of brunch and decided I didn't want to have 800 caleroies so early in the day, so I had some fruit instead. It's also helped me cut way back on sugar. I  have cheat days but for the most part I just eat unhealthy food in moderation and it's helped so much. I haven't felt deprived at all. Good luck!

Answer

I have a charge HR and I love it. I've had it for almost a year and a half. I haven't had any problems with it. But makes me walk mire knowing I want to reach or surpass my goal.

Answer

Going to the gym and eating healthy are going to help you lose weight.. it may help in the sense that you can see how little/ much your doing to achieve your goal but you can lose weight without spending $100+
