I'm a complete amateur at this stuff - some expert advice might be a good idea.Re. the Fitbit - I like mine, particularly the heart rate data. I feel it helps as a kind of motivational tool as much as anything, but it does have big flaws. It supposedly tracks how much calories are burned during exercise but I found it overestimated those numbers for me by an average of 700 Kcal per day when I put it to the test. I found that very disappointing. It would seem that Fitbit don't test their products sufficiently before putting them on the market, at least lately. I read that fitness trackers made by other companies such as Garmin and smart watches from the likes of Samsung are much more accurate at some jobs like tracking calorie burn. Not perfect, but better than Fitbit. It might be worth investigating all the options before spending much money.I hope you're feeling better this morning. Thanks for the chat and best of luck with the weight loss [emoji2]</blockquote>
