I want one now!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-use-fitbit#post-466506 Thu, 27 Dec 2012 13:38:31 +0000 Mrs.VW 466506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just wanted to see if anyone else got a Fitbit for Christmas :) I got the fit zip - the one that is more round. I'm just playing around with it today and seeing how TERRIBLY sedentary I am at work. :( I guess that happens in a small office! I want to figure out how to sync it with My Fitness Pal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-use-fitbit#post-317470 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 12:52:59 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 317470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@duckduckkristen: oh no! there is a definite lag, which is annoying.</p> <p>What's also annoying is that they're coming out with a new one that can sync with your phone via bluetooth. That's the one thing I really find lacking right now. I dislike having to use my computer as the middle man. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-use-fitbit#post-317466 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 12:46:18 +0000 duckduckkristen 317466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my fitbit, although currently it refuses to sync with my computer. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-use-fitbit#post-317464 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 12:42:24 +0000 hellobeeboston 317464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: oh that is awesome. when I start trying to get back in shape PP I may do something similar!</p> <p>yeah - the device is a great motivator - there are lots of competitions going on at my office, I'm not really as involved right now (obviously) but I definitely will be! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-use-fitbit#post-317460 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 12:33:47 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 317460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hellobeeboston: Haha, yeah, it would be depressing to think about your sleep efficiency at 9 months. (And also over the next few months after!)</p> <p>I am also syncing mine with MyFitnessPal, where I've started tracking my food. It has a huge database and I can literally just scan stuff in with a barcode and it knows exactly how many calories to log and what not.</p> <p>Perhaps I should have known all along that it would be a gadget or two that would finally give me the kick in the pants I needed ... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-use-fitbit#post-317457 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 12:30:17 +0000 hellobeeboston 317457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: Yes! I have a fitbit! We were all given them at work for a little fitness experiment. I love it - can't wait to really start using it when I'm not 9 months preggo - but I still get up to between 7,000 and 9,000 steps/day.</p> <p>I was also really liking tracking my sleep, but now since I get up so much to go to the bathroom it seems pointless.</p> <p>@mrbee: I washed mine too! I realized what I did about 10 minutes into the dryer cycle - pulled it out - and amazingly, it still works fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-use-fitbit#post-317455 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 12:24:07 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 317455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Nooo! Get another one and I'll be your friend! Of course, you would probably put me to shame since you actually live in a walkable area. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-use-fitbit#post-317452 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 12:13:55 +0000 mrbee 317452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: I absolutely adored mine!!!</p> <p>Then I laundered it and it stopped working. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-use-fitbit#post-317450 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 12:11:20 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 317450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got one yesterday and I'm kind of obsessed. I'm at 7048 steps today! </p>
