Ok, so it’s no secret that I’m a Fitbit fan. I got my start with the Alta and it saw me through the longest race I’ve ever done, an intense 11km trail run on a wine farm. While training for it, I loved being able to track my progress via the Fitbit app and racking up all those free Vida e Caffe coffees via Discovery’s Vitality rewards programme along the way was pretty awesome.
I later moved on to the Fitbit Charge 2 and love that it’s got a heart rate monitor. I now get a more accurate read on how I’m doing and, because it takes my heart rate into account to see how hard I’m working, I get even more points.
But that doesn’t mean the Alta’s been forgotten about. That went straight to my run buddy, my flatmate Gaylene, who’s been wearing and loving it the moment she slipped it onto her wrist.
As the Alta has a slimmer design than the Charge 2 you almost forget that you’re wearing it and, let’s face it, it’s a lot sexier looking. Also, you can dress it up with an array of straps that include leather and metal variants and even a collection designed by Vera Wang.
You can view the Fitbit look book over here.
Anyway, I’m excited to let you know I’ve got not one but TWO FitBit Alta’s to give away along with a zexy leather strap for each of them. (Each Alta and strap combo is worth R3 300 so this is something you guys are going to want, want, want.)
Entering is easy and there are multiple ways to do it. The first is to hit up on twitter with ‘Hey @lipglossgirl! I’d love to win a @FitBitSAfrica Alta and leather strap’ and include the link to this post.
The second? Find my Instagram post about the comp (I’m @lipglossgirlxoxo) and leave a comment telling me why you want a Fitbit.
You can also pay a visit to my new Facebook page, give it a like and enter over there.
Lastly, you can enter by leaving a comment on this post telling me which FitBit strap caught your eye in the look book. I’m torn between the Simply Vera Vera Wang black leather + metal (pictured up top) and the Blush Pink Leather (below).
This competition closes on 9 June 2017 at 5pm. It’s open to South African residents only and two winners will be drawn from all pools.
Good luck guys! May the force of le Fitbit be with you!
Love, love
Leigh
This competition is now closed. A big congrats to winners Tarryn Henrick and Falon Johnson!
Lipgloss is my Life 
Lavender leather is my fav
Love the leather band in Lavender.
Eeek, the Simply Vera Vera Wang Black Leather & Metal – it’s soooo pretty!!!!! (Ok, the pink one is cool too but so not my colour) …
Blush pink Leather ❤ 🙂
Oh my gosh. I didn’t even know there was a leather strap. It is absolutely perfect and will be perfect to wear in a work environment and still look professional. Absolutely in love.
Definitely the plain black (Vera Wang Black Leather & Metal). So chic and will go with everything I wear 🙂
I love the black Vera Wang Alta … but in saying that I’d love either of them.
Love the Vera Wang black leather and metal
My wife would be over the moon with either of them. She deserve the spoil.
Love the lavender leather one!!
The Black Simply Vera Vera Wang is my favourite. Sleek, understated and classy. Love!
The Vera Vera Wang black leather it is edgy yet elegant ♡
The soft pink/22k rose gold plated Alta is a beauty! It’s one of the special edition ones. I used to have a Jawbone, but the strap broke in less than 3 months and the replacement that the supplier sent was faulty. Knowing how many steps I took in a day really helped motivate me work out more. So I would really really love to win one to help get me motivated again.
Love the Vera Vera Wang Black leather one
Love the timeless look of the brown leather, and the feminine soft pink/22k rose gold plated Alta too. What to choose, what to choose?!
Definitely the Simply Vera Vera Wang black leather + metal.
My fave is most definitely the Blush Pink leather strap. Beauuutiful!
The blush pink FitBit strap caught my eye! It reminds me of my favorite Flamingo bird. I absolutely need this FitBit Alta in my life as I need to desperately get my A into G and start running again and winning the FitBit Alta would inspire and motivate me to start running again.
Most definitely the Simply Vera Vera Wang black leather + metal. It’s oh so versatile and stylish
ooooh the pink one is fabulous!
I didn’t know they had such stylish strap options! My favourite is the Vera Wang Black leather strap. So chic and simple.

The FitBit strap that caught my eye is the Indigo Leather strap.
I just started on a 3 month gym/workout program. I have never gymed before so I’d really like as much support as possible and I feel the Fitbit Alta would be a great gym buddy.
I love love love the fitbit Metal bracelet in Stainless Steel. It looks like a designer jewellery piece rather than a functional item!
love the Vera fitbit has been on my wish list for this year started a 8 week challenge lost the weight and did so well – unfortunatly I got sick for a month discovered I have pre menopause and fibroids – would like to get my A back after my op!!!

As a stay at home mom, a student who’s trying home work outs, the fitbit Alta would be perfect, as I would be able to track my movements with easy and track my workouts as well. The perfect strap would have to be Vera Wang black leather for me😋😍
I adore the Simply Vera Vera Wang black leather – sooooooo chic!

Pale pink for me
Both. The blush pink is soft and feminine and it seems like pink is in this winter. The black is sleek and sophisticated and I love that is doesn’t look clunky and sporty.

So.who is the lucky winner
I updated the post yesterday with their names.
As an experienced fitbit user, how have the wrist bands held up on your Charge 2 and Alta?
Sorry for the slow reply! I just spotted this now. The bands have held up fabulously. I’ve actually worn the Charge 2 and Alta in the shower (but you shouldn’t – I just forgot I had them on) and both survived. They were made with hard-living in mind for those who run, hike, sweat and whatnot so they really are brill in the endurance department!
