I just got a Fitbit. I think I am going to like it. I had been using a free app on my smart phone but that really drained the battery. So far what I have learned from my Fitbit is that my morning walk contains the equivalent of 14 flights of stairs (I live in a very hilly town). The free app only measured steps so that all my uphills registered the same as walking on a level surface. I walk over 10,000 steps per day. Two months ago I was closer to a couch potato.
