Anyone use a Fitbit? What recommendations do you have? Is it worth getting? Where did you buy yours?

Depends on what you're looking for, what your activity levels are like?

What do you want to achieve with it?

I guess making sure I've done enough exercise each day, track my fitness a bit more and feel motivated to maintain it.

They don't count steps when you are pushing a pram... you don't love enough. I was gutted when I got mune

Mine counts pushing a pram as riding a bike. Mucks up my calorie out.

If that's all you want then something like a charge hr would suit you. I don't know anything about the cheaper ones. The blaze nags you each hour if you haven't moved enough which is motivating.

You can also join competitions with other Fitbit users which really gets you moving.

The Fitbit zip tracks your steps while pushing a pram, it's just the little one that you can clip on your belt, or put in your pocket. Think it was the first one that came out.

We have a couple and I find the challenges good at making me move more.
