We have decided to celebrate this year by gifting ourselves with a pair of Fitbit Flex bracelets. If you don't have one, Get One! Trouble is, they are a hot commodity right now, so good luck. Last Friday we bought ours at Best Buy, two out of three that could be found in all of the state of Colorado. Online retailers are back ordered. We were really, really lucky. These bracelets are. awesome. Click on the link to find out more about them, but for a quick overview, these bracelets track your every move all throughout the day. No need to wear your pedometer or other gadgetry. The FitBit will track the intensity of your movements, your calories burned, how much sleep you got and the quality of sleep by noting how many times you were restless, it is waterproof (like in the shower, not the pool) and it is compatible with MyFitnessPal. You can use MFP for tracking your food diary, and MFP will analyze and log the data it constantly receives from your FitBit. I am a data freak, so I LOVE this! Since Saturday I've logged 31.62 miles (walking).
This is a great way to partner up with my husband and cheer each other as we get healthier together - that way we can do our part in keeping the sickness part of the deal out of the equation as much as possible.
