[QUOTE="dunelm, post: 900309, member: 179219"] Hi [USER=104954]@hankjam[/USER] - About me and my fitbid. Firstly let me say that if stuff interferes with my day, especially the opportunity to get out on my bike, then I shove it in the "waste of life" bin. So, likes: very easy to set up on pc/laptop, tablets and phones. Syncs with all devices. You can charge it from any usb port - including in vehicle and using a phone charger. It counts my steps and activities like running up and down stairs and also helps to set targets.. I can track routes on my phone. Can check heartbeat any time and also get a graph on my computer. Can keep any eye on how much water I drink throughout the day. Can share info with others and compete with them if you like - I only do this with one of my sons. Fitbit desktop is set out in "tiles" and you can turn off many of the ones that you don't use and also arrange to suite. Dislikes (into my waste of life bin): adding countless items of food consumed - I tried it for 2 weeks and it was draining my life away. So for me a pointless waste of time but whatever floats your boat. Could be useful if you are counting carbs. The food diary also does not look at carbs per-se but if you have Google Chrome then you can download a plug in called FitbitKeto that replaces the sodium column with net carbs within the fitbit desktop.
