## Description

Product Description Never stop moving with Fitbit Flex. Wear this slim, stylish device all the time and get the motivation you need to get out and be more active. It tracks steps, distance, and calories burned and shows you how you’re stacking up against your daily goals. At night, it tracks your sleep cycle, helps you learn how to sleep better, and wakes you silently in the morning. Access your stats anytime on your computer, tablet or from leading smartphones – both iPhone and Android. Flex is your perfect companion, it’s with you everywhere… even in the shower. Plus, it looks good no matter what you’re wearing. From the Manufacturer • Certain features like Auto Sleep Tracking and SmartTrack may be disabled when using this accessory. Classic accessory bands are the recommended accessory for high intensity workouts and sleep tracking. • Do not wear the Flex 2 Pendant accessory while sleeping or during high intensity activity, as doing so could create a choking hazard. • Flex 2 Pendant accessories contain magnets. Magnets may interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators, or other medical devices. Consult your physician and the manufacturer of your medical device before using to determine if these accessories are safe for you. If the accessories may be interfering with your pacemaker, defibrillator, or other medical device, do not wear the accessories. Buying Guide Move it up: Since blood increases further up your arm, wear your tracker higher on your wrist to improve the heart rate signal during workouts. Start by moving the device up to three finger widths above your wrist bone, then experiment with slightly lower placement. Keep it secure: The less your tracker moves during exercise, the more chance you have of maintaining a heart rate signal throughout the activity. Do not wear the band too tightly, as this can restrict blood flow and goes against our wear and care guidelines. Hold steady for ten seconds: High intensity exercises or activities that cause you to keep your wrist bent (like push-ups) or move your arms vigorously (like dance) may interfere with heart rate signals. If you stop seeing a signal during these types of activities, hold your wrist steady for ten seconds during breaks to get your reading.

Review: MyFitnessPal integration works well - SUMMARY: This device will not do anything for you, but it will help you make good decisions about what you need to do yourself. Fitness is hard work. If I had to sum up what this device is doing for me, it is this. It is keeping me utterly honest about everything. I cannot lie to myself about how many calories I'm burning. It won't let me. Just knowing there is a record motivates me to make sure it is a good one. It's the same effect one gets if they know they are being graded.  ****** THE LONG VERSION I have been using the fitbit flex for five days now and I have fewer pounds and great fitting pants already, so it would be hard to regret my purchase. I went ahead and set my fitbit up to integrate with MyFitnessPal as soon as I set it up, so I have no idea how it works without it. Setting it up was a breeze. Go here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/apps/show/fitbit and follow the instructions. Once it is set up it gives you a warning that you should only enter your food on MFP to avoid double entries. I have entered everything I eat on MFP, and the info magically finds it's way to my fitbit dashboard, and there have been no problems whatsoever. Entering exercise is a little more complicated. Once you've done the integration, your MFP exercise entries will require one extra step--the start time of your exercise. My entries consist mostly of running and swimming. Technically, I don't need to enter the runs, since the pedometer takes care of them just fine, but when I do enter a run, the two apps manage it well. MFP gives the start time and duration of the run to fitbit, and fitbit takes that info and does some calculations that take the pedometer data into account, and comes up with a number of calories burned. I have run into one snag...if I edit the start time of my entry in MFP after I've already logged it, it causes the exercise to log twice on fitbit and I have to go into fitbit and manually remove the double entry. Sometimes I'm lazy and I don't enter the runs in MFP and I just let fitbit use the pedometer data exclusively....I've not taken a close enough look at the difference to comment on it, but it seems to work well either way as far as calorie counting. I just prefer knowing the speed and duration of specific intervals and that data is lost if I don't enter it into MFP. I take the flex off when I swim laps, since I have a watch that counts my laps and distances for me and wearing both would be cumbersome. I enter my swims manually into MFP, and fitbit automatically calculates it all. I've had no problems. You'll have a new thing in your MFP display too. Your exercise log will have a "fitbit calorie adjustment" entry. For whatever reason, fitbit lets me eat just a little less than fitness pal does, so the math is obviously a little different on the two programs. If you are tall and have abnormally long legs like me, you may have to adjust fitbit's default stride settings. Their website can tell you how. The biggest lifestyle change for me has been brought about by the in-your-face awareness of just how sedentary sitting at a computer is. On days when I work at my desk, 6PM rolls around and I've only got maybe 500 steps logged. I'll hit the gym to do my 3 mile jog, and still be no where near the 10 thousand step goal that is the default setting for the fitbit, so I end up walking on the treadmill until I get there. I find myself going on long walks after my swim too. Maybe I'm crazy, but I can't stand to go to bed without meeting my step goals first, even if I've logged a long swim, but whatever the reasons, it is working, and fast. I am losing weight again after stalling out for quite a while. I mentioned only having 500 steps after a day at my desk. Yesterday I had my first day away from my desk...shopping, a little yardwork, housework, just getting all the little things that need done around the house...at 5pm I had logged 8000 steps and was almost to my goal. I mention this because I think this is what makes the fitbit worthwhile. It quantifies how sedentary your life is on a given day and then tells you exactly what you need to do to make up for it. And I know, if you are a desk worker like me, that 10,000 steps is going to seem a bit ridiculous after a day at the office, but trust me, if you can make yourself make up for it, you will be blown away by the results. I hesitate to put the numbers down for my weight loss over the last 5 days, because I have frankly lost weight faster than I should and I don't want to invite trolls or create unrealistic expectations...everyone is different. I am eating more than 2000 calories a day (within the recommendations of the app set at medium plan intensity), I'm not starving myself, and yes, my legs were pretty tired the first few days, but I promise, I feel great. I'll be at my goal of 145 in a couple of weeks at this rate. The fitbit didn't lose that weight for me...I worked my butt off all by myself, but fitbit helped me figure out what I needed to be doing. **** I know this review is getting long, but I wanted to mention a couple of other things. I LOVE the sleep monitoring. I have random bouts of insomnia, and I sometimes wake up repeatedly all night, and this thing has done a brilliant job of measuring how much time I've actually spent sleeping vs. how much time I've been in bed. And that number of hours of actual sleep correlates almost perfectly to how I feel, mentally, through the day. The default sensitivity is perfect for me...though I have seen it isn't so much for other people. It is easy to turn it on for naps too. Just tap it five times when you lay down, and again when you get up. You can fix it manually in the website if you forget...it will still have the movement data regardless of whether you tap it or not, it just needs to know when you were sleeping to fix it all. It accidentally goes into sleep mode here and there...once when I was using a hammer drill, once when I was using a hammer, and once when I was shaking a bottle of cat antibiotics to mix it, but when that happens, you know because it vibrates, and if you tap it five times right away to bring it out of sleep mode, it won't mess up your data.
Review: I LOVE love love my Fitbit - I LOVE love love my Fitbit!! I've had the Fitbit Flex since around February and it has changed my life. The biggest impact it has had on me is that it constantly holds me accountable to my exercise and sleep. I have lost 20 pounds so far, by making diet changes, doing strength training exercises, and moving a lot. The Fitbit would not be nearly as amazing without the technology that goes along with it - the website and the app. When I have bluetooth enabled on my phone, my Fitbit data constantly syncs with my phone. I can check the app to see, in real time, exactly how many steps I've taken, how many miles I've walked, and how many minutes of my day have been "very active". Within the app or the dashboard of the Fitbit website, you can customize your goals for each of these elements. During my first week with the Fitbit, I just went about my normal life and looked at my data at the end of the week. Then I set my goals for the following week to be slightly higher than the amount I did previously. For example, if I did on average 7500 steps a day, then I set my goal for the next week to be 8000 (500 steps more). Every week I look at my data and set new goals to make sure I am constantly improving and moving more. (By the way, I paid the $50 annual fee to sign up for the Premium account. The Premium part of their website provides you with so much data, weekly reports and graphs about your food if you log it, activities, and sleep. You can also download spreadsheets of your data through the Premium tab. I highly recommend this if you are very data-driven or want to keep track of your progress.) One of my favorite features of the Fitbit is the sleep tracker. Since you always wear the Fitbit, it can track your sleep each night, including how long you're actually asleep for, how long it takes you to fall asleep, and how many times you wake up or are restless throughout the night. This is usually the most interesting part of the Fitbit when I show it to friends. I've convinced multiple coworkers to buy and use Fitbits. Fitbits are definitely more fun when you have friends that use it also. You can add friends, and then within the app or website it shows the rankings among you and your friends in terms of who has the most steps. This is REALLY motivating and fun!! Since getting the Fitbits, we are all motivated to walk more and exercise, partially because we want to be in first place in steps. We also now have a reason to talk about our active lives and what we've been up to, and I've even started working out with some of my friends. It's amazing! I've had people ask me how accurate the Fitbit is. While I can't necessarily speak to its accuracy, I can speak to its consistency. That's good enough for me, because what matters to me is that I'm moving and that I'm moving more every week than I did the week prior. I did very recently start having problems with the battery life of my Fitbit. For the last few months that I've had it, I've only had to charge the battery about once every 5 days. I also set up email and text reminders about when my battery is low so that I never let it die completely. (I don't want to lose any steps or sleep data!) When I recently started having this battery life problem, my battery would drain every 12-24 hours. I tried the troubleshooting tips on the website and then sent an email to their customer service team. They were able to check the system logs and verify the battery life error. After sending them a copy of my desertcart receipt, they sent me a brand new Fitbit package free of charge, and without me having to send in my defective tracker first. I have been very impressed every time I've contacted their customer service team. I also contacted them to see if they have any larger size wristbands. The Fitbit comes with a small and large wristband, but the large is definitely not big enough to fit my dad, who is on his own weight loss journey. After emailing them about the larger wristband size, they got my shipping information from me and sent me an extra large wristband free of charge. Wow! Thank you Fitbit! If you're debating whether or not you should spend $100 on this, I absolutely say to go for it. The motivation and information that I've gotten from this device is worth much more than $100 to me personally. If you're someone that would wear a Fitbit all the time, then it's worth it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Since most of the complaints are about the wristband. Is there anything out that you can use with the wristband to keep you from losing it?**
A: i came across this fastener. I've never used it myself since my wristband is holding up fine. I rarely take it off tho. http://www.amazon.com/MDW-Silicon-Fastener-Fitbit-Wristband/dp/B00L7TOUYU/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1430793202&sr=8-9&keywords=fitbit+accessories

**Q: does it have a clock**
A: No. there is no face on the fitbit.  It is completely blank unless you tap it to see your activity progress which shows up as little lights.

**Q: isn't there a recall on the FitBit**
A: The newest model is called The a Force and it has been recalled because the clasp contains a metal that creates a rash on the arm of the wearer.  I have the Fex and the One which are older models which have not had any problems.  The Force is not for sale now and it has been recalled by the manufacturer.

**Q: does this come with the charger cable included?**
A: Yes it comes with a small band, large band, clasp, charger cable, and USB sync dongle.

After sending them a copy of my Amazon receipt, they sent me a brand new Fitbit package free of charge, and without me having to send in my defective tracker first. I have been very impressed every time I've contacted their customer service team. I also contacted them to see if they have any larger size wristbands. The Fitbit comes with a small and large wristband, but the large is definitely not big enough to fit my dad, who is on his own weight loss journey. After emailing them about the larger wristband size, they got my shipping information from me and sent me an extra large wristband free of charge. Wow! Thank you Fitbit! If you're debating whether or not you should spend $100 on this, I absolutely say to go for it. The motivation and information that I've gotten from this device is worth much more than $100 to me personally. If you're someone that would wear a Fitbit all the time, then it's worth it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love my FitBit
*by Z***1 on June 9, 2014*

Well, the only reason I am not giving this 5 stars is the quality of the wristband. I just got this on May 20th. I was using the small wristband (because, thankfully, both the large and small come in the package). Yesterday I noticed the small band already coming apart a little at the face of it where the hard plastic meets the rubber. So I switched to the large, which is a bit annoying because it is large, but it still works. So I may have to invest in more bands. Regardless, I have been quite religious about keeping track of my food intake, water intake, etc. And I have quite a few friends who also own a FitBit of some sort so, in keeping track of their progress as well, it also motivates me to do more! And I have messaged back-and-forth with a friend or two and my progress is motivating them! Instead of watching TV sitting down, I have my Gold's Gym stair-stepper and I use this to get in a couple thousand steps. Love being able to track sleep as well. I always wondered how effective my sleep was and this answers that question. My sleep is actually quite effective! Unfortunately, there was a bug with my phone (Droid Motorola Rzr M) when they did the KitKat update and the Bluetooth knocks out WiFi so I am forced to get a new, non-Motorola phone, which is okay because I probably needed a new phone. Of course, the Samsung Galaxy S 5 has its' own fitness tracker band (which basically does the exact same thing as the Fitbit except it also tracks ones heartbeat) but I am hoping the FitBit Flex is still awesome with this phone. :) I am sure it will be. (This bug was not taken into account with the 4 stars; that rating is due to the band already starting to wear out.) I have lost about 7 lbs just watching my calories (I was never overweight in the first place but this will help me to stay that way). I recommend this product for anyone who does not have a Motorola Droid Rzr M (or, apparently, any Motorola phone with the new KitKat update) at least until the KitKat bugs are smoothed out. Update: 13 Feb 2015 Still love my Fitbit! One thing though, never put it through the wash - still works afterwards but runs out of battery within 24 hours. So, I went and purchased a new one! The instructions on how to integrate the two are quite easy. I will possibly give the old one to a friend to try. I have inspired at least three friends to get the Fitbit because I lost so much weight! (About 18 lbs now.) I wasn't overweight; just heavier. Believe it or not, I was still in normal BMI, now it is just a lower number, still in the normal range. I purchased a stepper as well (from Amazon, of course) and I have toned up. My husband thinks it's great and has no problem with my spending habits when it comes to my fitness obsession. And this is less expensive than a gym membership (which is also difficult to get to with my schedule). The daily challenges help me and my friends who challenge me to stay on course and strive for the 15K steps a day. I had been keeping track of caloric intake but turns out I don't really eat a lot of calories so I kind of stopped that. But I definitely keep track of water intake. Living in Utah I need to drink a lot of that. Anyhow, I've rambled long enough. Seriously, the Fitbit will motivate you to take those steps and keep in shape.
