This winter, I really slacked off at the gym. I just didn’t make it a priority and I didn’t really feel motivated to go. That all changed when I learned about the Fitbit Charge HR. When the Fitbit Flex came out, I got one. I loved it, but there were several things I didn’t like about it. I didn’t like that since they tell you to wear it on your non-dominate hand, it made it difficult to wear a watch. I also didn’t like the clasp. I was always paranoid that it would fall off. And then…I learned about the Fitbit Charge HR.

For Mother’s Day, my husband and kids got me the Fitbit Charge HR. If you have’t seen it yet, this is what it looks like:
Why I Like Mine
First off, it’s pretty! I love the plum color. But what I like the most is the fact that all I need to do is tap it twice and it tells me what time it is! A few other features:
- Counts your steps
- Monitors your heart rate
- Tells you how many miles you’ve walked
- The calories you’ve burned throughout the day
- How many flights you’ve climbed
- Monitors your sleep activity
- Caller ID
There are other features, but that’s the gist of it! But what I really like is that it motivates me to get more steps than I did the day before. I may or may not be known to run in place at night while I watch T.V. just so I get more steps! With the Fitbit products, you have the ability to connect with your friends that also have a Fitbit and basically keep each other motivate and try to walk more steps than your friends!!
