FitBit - I got one!

A while ago I posted about the FitBit gadgets and how I wanted one, well - B and I each have one!

Our scales died earlier this week and B wanted to get the FitBit scales, as they automatically sync... plus we both love our gadgets.

That night after setting it up, we started to look into the FitBit's again, but this time they had a new one; the FitBit Flex which can be worn on the wrist. This was much better for me as I don't really like wearing things around my waist (previous pedometer would reset itself cos of my belly fat) or in my bra (leaves marks and my boobs jiggle too much). Plus I liked the idea of having a constant reminder that would be in a visible place.

So, the next day B and I each got a black one.

It tracks steps, calories, distance, sleep and also has a webpage where you can enter in food.  However, one of the really great things is that it can sync with other pages/apps, like My Fitness Pal, which I think is just awesome!

We have only had them for a couple of days (got it on Friday afternoon), but already I have gone for a walk! Something I haven't done in over 6 months, possibly a year! I managed a 3km walk in about 30 minutes

There is a lot more that I could write about it, but I might leave that for another post when I have had it for a while and can give a more detailed account and understanding. Instead, I will leave you with a photo I took while on my walk today.
