I want to get a fitness tracker. Feel a little overwhelmed at which one to pick. I never had one before, so not sure if I need all the bells and whistles that some of them have. I also don’t want to break the bank. Any suggestions?

I've had a few (I used to review items, they were all freebies)... but I always got fed up with them after a couple of days (forgot to take off in the bath, forgot to charge, never synched it with the phone, etc). :D Hopefully you're not like me, but it might be good just to get a cheap one first... if you're still using it after a couple of weeks, you could treat yourself to a better one. :D Where are you in the world?

I am in Ohio. I think that I would be good with wearing it and syncing it with my phone, I like to see graphs and numbers.

US - good stuff. If you (or anyone you know, you could give them the money for it) got Amazon Prime you should be able to get one really cheap (you can get 30 day free Prime, but you MUST remember to cancel as soon as you've signed up... you still get the 30 days free). Just search for "fitness tracker" on vipon.com :D My latest one was one of the round ones that looks a lot like watches, it was nice, could read text messages on it, did heartrate, etc, and the app tracked nicely daily steps... I used it until the battery ran out, and never bothered to recharge it. Hahaha.

I’ve had a Fitbit for about 4 years. For the past 2 years the Fitbit charge 2 and I’ve been super happy with it. Not very expensive and not too much extras I need. I use abc iPhone but refuse to buy Apple Watch until Fitbit breaks up with me lol:

What do you mean with MyZone keeping you honest?

It’s with your workout gear & forces you to go to the gym & place it on your body each time!! The graph is posted within a minute of completing the WOD. The % of your heartbeat is on your cell phone or Gym TV constantly, once it goes below 50, time to push yourself!! It doesn’t give you credit below 50, as the body doesn’t burn calories effectively at that low level. Hope this helps.

So I got a Fitbit and the calories burned to flow to here, but my food log from here doesn’t flow to Fitbit app. Not sure if it is even a possibility?
