Has any one got a step counter



Recommended Posts

My Dr told me that a step counter would be a good idea. Because I have to do a hour a day or 10,000 steps so I got one that has a appointment for my phone. It also tracks my sleep and How long I go with out walking.

I bought the Jawbone UP and like it. It tracks my steps and sleep. It also syncs with My Fitness to collect my food info. And MFP collects activity from Jawbone. I considered getting the FitBit but am cheap! Lol. My Jawbone UP was only 44.99 and fits anywhere on my clothes. You can also buy a watch band and wear it on your wrist.

Oh! And it gives you tips on your progress.

I use a Fitbit. It syncs with my phone and with MyFitnessPal. I chose the version that has the display on the wrist because I like having it as a watch and so I can see my steps quickly, but the non-display version is about $20 cheaper. It has a vibrating alarm in the mornings, which I like because I can turn it off without rolling over and it only wakes me up. It does a good job of tracking my steps and gives me an idea of how much I move on some days compared to others.

There are several products I like the fit bit zip. It about $50 and is accurate within 5%. You can also track meals on their website and has a cell phone app.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
