I want to increase my level of fitness this summer, and drop some weight as well.
I am 60 yo, 195lb, and 5'-11". I want to drop at least 15 lbs.
I used to be a runner but had a hip replacement 8 years ago so, have dropped that activity.
I was doing well then last year I had my thyroid removed (cancer) and am on thyroid meds now.
I've noticed a drop in my energy level so, it is a struggle getting back into shape.
Anyway, I am thinking of trying one of these fitness watches to track my activity level, provide some progress feedback, and just get me motivated.
I will be concentrating on biking, hiking, and power walking.
Has anyone here used these? Are these useful or, just another gadget?
Is the FitBit a good choice?
Thx,
Rob
