What is the Best Fitness Tracker?

Last summer in D.C. I partially rewound back (and suffered) to the nomadic lifestyle of our ancestors by walking in 80° humidity to and from the metro station daily – which totaled three miles roundtrip. As a result, I lost eight pounds only to gain them back in car-spoiled city of LA. We rarely walk or use the stairs despite knowing the health benefits of it. If you have the time and money, consider taking advantage of 24 Hour Fitness promotions such as getting a free pass. But for those with tight budget and schedule, include some walking into your routine and stay motivated by purchasing the best fitness tracker from some of the most affordable options.
