I'm trying to keep track of all of my activities of the day, I walk 4 miles, exercise twice a week, and always take the stairs. So, my question to the infinite knowledge of Aspies, is: should I get a Nike Fuel band or a Fitbit? What are the pros and cons of each? I know there are several different kinds of Fitbits, which kind works the best for tracking everyday things? Are there different kinds of Nike Fuel bands? Or is there another brand that someone likes better? I also want something under $150 if possible.
Thanks

I love my VivoSmart! It's a round 150 if you get it without the HR strap, and it's very sleek looking (especially on small wrists)!

not everyone carries their phone all the time. If you're a girl, it might be in your purse all day. If you're a guy you may have it sitting on the table while you do things around the house.

I'm always to afraid of people stealing it to leave it anywhere. so I also keep it with me. I also do so for my attention span so have something to do.
sor for me theres not point in these devices?
