If you get a kick out of tracking everything from your heart rate while you’re in the zone to how many calories you’ve gulped down over the day, here’s a gadget you may want to add to your fitness-and-diet arsenal:
Fitbit is a sleek little device that clips onto your clothing (sounds a lot easier than those heartrate monitors where you have to wear straps around your chest!). It allows you to track your movement, sleep, and calories burned throughout the day and night (admit it, you’ve always wondered how many calories you burn sleeping). Based on an internal motion detector, it can tell how many steps you’ve taken and even how well you’ve slept at night.
Fitbit makes it easy (and kind of fun) to gauge how high your activity level is (I bet I wouldn’t impress it much as I sit here to write this blog post…).
You can pick it up for around $99.
