Fitbit flex vs. body media fit



Recommended Posts

Pros and cons? Which do you like best?

I've narrowed it down to one of these two. Lansing towards the body media, but it seems kinda bulky.

Opinions?

I dont know much about body media but I can say that I looove my fitbit flex!! At the time I purchased it I compared it to jawbone and nike fuel band and the flex was the best. I love that it links up with other apps like mfp and walgreens where I earn points and discounts. I charge it once a week, it's Water proof, and I often forget I have it on.

Obsessed with flex. It's so easy to use and like th other post said - the mfp link is awesome. I had no clue it linked with Walgreens!!!!

I love the sleep tracker.

I have been looking at the Flex as well. I will be going with that one for sure.

I've had my BodyMedia Fit for a year now, and I love it beyond words. It's so helpful when exercising, since most machines and MFP over-estimate your calorie burn. It also can sync with MFP, and other apps.

If you think it's too bulky, there's a new model coming out this fall. It's supposed to be the size of a quarter.

I've been leaning more towards the body media because I heard its more accurate.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
