Fitbit is Helpful for a lot of Reasons

I got my Fitbit in the mail and I started to use it. I am ready to review it so far and let you know what I think about having one.

First, I was really put off by how much they cost. Yeah, they were very pretty and stylish and it seemed like all the cool people had one around where I live. In fact, they are so popular here in my area that they were out of stock and I had to order mine Online. After wearing it for a few weeks and using it. I have found it well worth the money. At worse, you are going to end up with a very nice watch. It is comfortable and fun to look at the time because all you have to do is move your arm and the time comes up on the little screen.

Second, you don’t have to be into tech to enjoy it. I know tech somewhat but I also get intimidated by it. Reading the face of this and seeing my number of steps, and miles really amazes me, Responding to the movement alerts is another of the features that I have used so far. Both are invaluable.

Third, this thing is compelling me to work out. I started with walking and I got a record of what amount of steps was too far for me because the next day I hurt. I was so excited when I figured out that I can walk around the house and it counts. I had it on when I was trying to start doing aerobics again and I was happy too find out that it counted as steps and miles as well,. I would have never had that information any other way, I believe.

Fourth, it is very easy to wear. I wore it one day and got caught walking in a thunderstorm without an umbrella and it was water resistant enough to survive it without a problem meaning if it rains it is easy because it can get wet. It feels great and is so small that it doesn’t get in the way. It also never gets caught on things…

Fifth, I really ended up loving the thing and can’t live without it and I am wearing all the time and truly enjoying myself.

Sixth, I know that as I wear it and use more of the features that I will like it even more.

Seventh, it is really helping to get me in shape. I have lost a few pounds. My stomach and thighs seem smaller and I feel like my muscles are getting harder already, This is just after a few weeks.

Which one do you wear? This is the best review of Fitbit EVER!!

I wear a blaze and I completely agree.

One drawback which makes me consider getting an iWatch instead. The fitbit isn’t waterproof.

It’s so great to hear about how much you love your fitbit! I have a Charge HR that I’ve been wearing every day for two and a half years. All the rubberized material is coming off mine, so I’m likely going to get a Charge 2 soon. Like you, I find it really helpful in tracking and helping me improve my fitness and sleep.

The blaze features changeable bands and frames. They cost a fortune through fitbit, but you can find good knockoffs through Amazon.

The Charge 2 also has changeable bands. My Charge HR is of the “old” generation before changeable bands existed. I’m looking forward to that as an option.

It’s great to read you enjoy your Fitbit and find it a useful tool for treating diabetes. I’ve been wearing a Fitbit Flex for the last three years and quickly discovered that the data feedback in steps and miles surprisingly motivating.

Nice review!

I’ve been wearing a Fitbit for about 4 years and find it to be a good motivator. I still use a Fitbit One because I don’t want a bracelet. I already wear an Apple watch on one wrist and a medical alert bracelet on the other.

Great review and thanks for sharing your experience.
