Fitbit and Weight Watcher newbies

ANSWERED

I have seen a few older threads about sync'ing fitbit and WW app.

What is the latestest news on this?

I was able to do this successfully with the activity and steps portion (usually syncs itself late at night). But it hasn't done the food portion. This would be amazing if it worked. Is it supposed to??

@Zoeylu WW will never link the Fitbit Food Portion to thier tracker.  Fitbit is Calorie Based WW is Points based.

 

Just because your sick doesnt mean you need to put the Fitbit away. Hope you fell better soon!

 

You say you are hungry are you getting some protein in with each meal? Its keeps you full longer. 

Get some good fats in as well. Oil, avacado, nuts. They will also help on the fullness

 

Congrats on your loss so far!

I just cancelled WeightWatchers because the new website is not user friendly and all of the progress reports/graphs are now gone. You can sync activity from your FitBit, however not food.  FitBit's website seems to have all that the old WW website offered and more.  The only difference I see is that calories are counted instead of points.  I like seeing the nutritional values of the foods also which WW doesn't offer.

It will never do the food portion.

 

Points are different than Calories

Hi!  What do you mean by not doing the food portion?  On fitbit?  I have done Weight Watchers and been successful following the Points system.  Love the Fit bit, but I'm frequently very hungry.  I find I'm obsessing being in the "over budget" zone.  I don't remember being as hungry on WW.  I have lost 5 lbs since Friday probably a lot of water.  I'm sick now, and feel I can hardly eat anything because I'm not moving, but still getting hungry.  Probably should put it away until I feel better....
