Hi Terrie,
I have the Fit Bit Zip. The Zip can be clipped to your clothing and is, in my opinion, the best pedometer that I have used. It also allows you to track calories burned and duration of exercise. I have to admit, I have not used the logging for food. I am torn between staying with Weight Watchers and trying the food logging available through Fit Bit. I did have to set up my account online before registering my Zip. One of the reasons I chose the Zip instead of the Fit Bit Flex was the potential for the flex to interpret hand motion as a step. I can't remember whether that was mentioned here on the list or if I read it on FitBit.com The Zip is $59 at most places and the Flex is $99. I purchased my Zip at drugstore.com. You receive 5% back and I received an additional 8% back shopping through extrabux.com. I have had my Zip registered since July 5th. This week I will log over 300,000 steps. It has definitely helped me to be more active.

I would like to monitor activity level and weight, and perhaps callory intake. I have done Google and AppleVis searches but haven't found info about which apps and external sensors work with Voice Over. If anyone, perhaps Lois or others, who uses a combination of apps and sensors that work would be willing to give a basic explanation of what they use and any workarounds they have discovered to make their equipment and apps accessible, I would very much appreciate it. Thanks for any help you all can give.
