I have to say that Fit Bit has awesome customer service, too! I have been using mine since April, then it died about 3 weeks ago. I contacted them after I got home from vacation on the 9th of July. They asked a few questions, suggested some things to try, then replaced by Fit Bit free of charge when those things didn't work! Even better, I had the new Fit Bit in the mail within about 5 days! :)

I loved my Fit Bit before, but knowing that it's backed up with such awesome customer service makes it even better! :)

OK so I loved my fitbit until it just quit working. I tried all of their suggestions and I am currently waiting to see if they will be sending me a new one. I hope this is not a common occurrence! I will let you know how it turns out.

I bought mine at best buy and just love it loged 12,104 steps today :) . It will log it into my fitness pal as well . Best buy has them in store for the same price but if in 30 days I hate it or it stops working I can drive over and return it ;) but right now it's my best friend.

So with the FitBit, does it record the calories burned during normal exercise (i.e. not walking or running)? Or will I need to keep using my heart rate monitor and chest strap?

God is Great! I was browsing on the web looking at the info on fitbit and a nosey coworker was asking me questions about the product. I replied that I did not know much about it and I belong to VSG forum and is one of the hot topics. So of course that opened up more dialog and questions. To make a short story shorter. The nosey coworker brought me a Fitbit to work today!! :) . Thank you nosey coworker and better yet thank you GOD!! (One less expense for me)

I went the body media fit route instead. Got mine on eBay for $50 and the annual subscription for $28. So mine was cheaper upfront.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
