    I used to be OBSESSED with my FitBit and would be crazy about just the counted steps. But, then gave it up because I was being obsessive about steps only. But, I am loving hearing about new/updated systems that focus on other health features.

    My parents have fitbits, but I’m not sure which ones. They swear by them! Especially my step dad. He walks about 5 miles in the morning before he mows lawns all day. Which is probably why he doesn’t look 70 lol

    I love the updates to the Fitbit. I got complacent with my Fitbit and stopped using it. I might dig it out now or better yet, buy a new one!

    Thank you for sharing this – I was literally just looking at some of these yesterday because my boyfriend’s after one but we were so overwhelmed by how many there were with all the different functions. They are so confusing! I’ll tell him to read this to get his head round it xx

    I’ve been on the fence when it comes to Fitness Trackers. Part of me thinks they are a gimmick but the other part of me thinks they are a great way to make sure you are getting most out of your workouts. Not sure if I will every try one, but I am considering it.
