I bought a Fitbit awhile back and loved it! It loved me back–said hello to me and offered encouragement–yes I know it is a little mechanical device, but every little bit counts, right? I loved how it seamlessly integrated with the MyFitnessPal app and the Fitbit app. A great tool for recognizing where you can improve with health and fitness and a great, entertaining way to stay on track.

I was having such good luck with my original model and then, one day, I lost it! I was traveling when it happened and I really wanted to see how many miles we were hoofing it every day.

Today, I decided to replace it–I figured I’d done enough penance and I’d saved my pennies to get a new one–they aren’t the cheapest pedometers on the planet. Lo and behold there is a new model and a much more reasonable price! The Zip!!!! It seems that the only feature it doesn’t have is the sleep monitor. I’m OK with that as I sleep like a baby.

If you already use Fitbit and any apps, let me know which ones you like. I’d love to hear from you!
