Anyone got a Fitbit?

Anyone got a Fitbit? I found a Fitbit group for Mumsnet, but it's looking a bit empty! It's called "Mumsnet Fitbit"

Here's the link - www.fitbit.com/group/22CZ24

It would be great to have a group of people to "compete" against.

I have one.
Loving it!

Ooh, I love walking and really need to loser weight! Which model would you recommend?

Just joined ! Only had mine 2 days so far. I've chosen the zip as due to my job I can't wear eanything on my wrists so needed a clip on one. My step count hasn't been great so need to get more active. Aiming for 10,000 per day.

I've got a One, I put it on my bra. I would imagine they aren't as suitable for men as they aren't as accurate on your waist.

14488 today and 56 flights of stairs but Monday is my foot sore day as it's 3 miles in total to and from the CM twice and a v steep hill (and a small one the other way).

I got the Fitbit flex from Sainsburys.
Love it!

10 000 steps a day.

Mrsmorton I can only get the group on the web page but I'm a technical dinasaur!!

Is it worth getting over a cheap pedometer? They're quite expensive

Yes, what's the advantage of a Fitbit over a pedometer?

I can only compare my very old pedometer with my fitbit. What I do like is it records all walking you do and you never need to start and stop it. The most useful thing I think is all the statistics it gives you. You can set yourself a daily target, if I don't achieve this I go out for a walk in the evening. Personally for me it has encouraged me to walk more.
