Just noticed in your profile that you have a FitBit Charge HR. What are your opinions on it? Did you have a different pedometer before? How's battery life, comfort, accuracy, etc? I gave my FitBit one to my sister after I lost 50 pounds, but my weightloss kind of leveled off when I did that so I'm thinking of upgrading and getting back into the routine.

I had a Garmin Vivofit for the last year and I wore them both for about a week after I got the FitBit to compare them. I wrote a really long review of them side-by-side but that was on Facebook about a month ago and impossible to find now. I got the Charge HR because I use my heart rate during workouts to calculate activity points for Weight Watchers. I was curious whether the wrist-based would be as good as the chest strap and more convenient. Turns out, it wins on that!The pedometer accuracy is as good as any of them, I think. I might get a few steps counted when I wash dishes but I'm not worried since I use it as a general measure overall.

Comfort is fine, but they want you to wear it a little higher on your wrist than you would wear a watch for better HR measurement so many people are finding they run too small. Try one on first before you buy. Battery life is my only complaint. I get about 4-5 days as advertised, but my Vivofit had a watch battery and didn't need charging. I can usually charge it while I'm showering and it does just fine.
