Hello folks.

I'm new to this whole fitness tracker technology.

I keep hearing about how good and how handy this devices are.

I would love to know more about them if anybody has any experience to share and a vote on which is best?

I want something to track all my steps, calories burned, heart rate, sleeping, any movements, possible to sync with mobile phone?

I've heard some play music, some show text messages and notification? Some have alarms to wake up?

Really looking into getting one to fit my big wrists and to keep myself motivated and track my daily life once I have the surgery!

Tnx for all your input!

P.s currently looking at fit bit 3 or Samsung gear fit Pro 2

I've got Fitbit Inspire HR. It has all functions of Fitbit Charge 3 but costs $50 less. It tracks everything you mentioned, including sleep. It shows texts messages, emails and notifications from my calendar. Doesn't play music. I read about it here on BP, bought 2 weeks ago and love it!

I love my Fitbit charge 3. It inspires me to take more steps each day. Before surgery I never walked. I now walk everyday with my daughter or sil.

You can enter challenges, track your weight and I sync it with my fitness pal. This one is also waterproof as I do dishes and I can wear it in the shower.

Fitbit Charge 2 might be better imho. It's battery lasts much longer, it costs less money. Good luck choosing the one you like.
Oops...typo. I had in mind Charge 3.

I have the inspire hr and my husband has the charge 3. I wish I would have bought the charge 3 for myself simply because of the battery life, his is SO much better.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
