Started the sleep tracking function last night on the fitbit one. I do remember waking once so that seems accurate. I could have used a bit more sleep, but I woke up and did not need to sleep further.

Last week I ordered the Fitbit One through my “Vitality” program at work using points I had earned throughout the year through exercise, training and health education.  It arrived last night and so far I think that it is pretty fantastic.  The form factor is great, the synching setup is simple and the UI is easy to use.  We’ll see how it goes, but I think it will be much better than the current pedometer I am using for the…
