Has anybody bought the Fit Bit 2 ?? Or any Fit Bit

I am thinking about buying one as my gift too myself when I have my surgery.

If you have one do you like it or is it not very useful

I do own a FitBit Blaze and it is awesome. I love the app because it allows you to track your food, Water intake and of course your activity! Before I purchased the Blaze, I had a FitBit Flex as well the Charge.

I have the charge 2! I love it. If you are thinking as a gift to yourself......I say it's a perfect gift.

I have a Fitbit One - I hate wearing anything on my wrist, so I like the clip on aspect of it (I clip it onto my bra). That said, I may upgrade to a Charge, Blaze, or Surge in the future when my physical activity will warrant having a heart rate monitor. But right now I walk, and will probably continue to do so for a few months after surgery, so I'm waiting on that.

I have the Fitbit and love it. Had the surge originally, but upgraded in December to the Blaze. Looks more like a watch, has exercise programs on it as well.

Also in a group that does weekly challenges for steps and also syncs to myfitnesspal as well. I give it

I got the charge hr when I first started my journey in April. It helps keep you motivated for exercise, and group challenges are great too.

I burned out two FitBit products - something in my skin and them did not agree -- also they really don't like Water -- like don't wash the dishes with one on. I went with a Garmin Vivofit HR. Love it. Had it since July now and not a single problem.

Bought my Fitbit Blaze and love it. I am impressed that since preparing for my VSG next week my heart rate has been dropping steadily. Also love the Water, food, sleep tracking features

I bought a charge HR some time back. Had it on my wrist and my whole arm was in pain. Wasn't too tight or anything. Then I put it on the other wrist, thinking maybe my arm was just upset about something, and that other arm started to hurt too. Then i returned it and did some research. If you've got nerve damage, pain, carpal tunnel....most likely you will have pain. Thousands of others had to return them for the same reasons I had to. Something to do with the darn heart rate monitor. So, I can't have one. I was so bummed out. Hope it works great for you!!
