Do You Have A Fitbit Flex? Nikki Keeps Losing Hers And Needs A Quick Fix
AJ and I both have Fitbits. He has a fancy schmancy one with a cool AF name -- "The Blaze" which sounds like a great name for a radio morning show host. I have the original Fitbit Flex with a major design flaw: The rubber wristband won't stay on my wrist. If you're not familiar with this particular model, the clasp does not have a buckle. Instead, it has nubs that are supposed to keep it in place. AJ's Blaze has a buckle, so he does not have this problem.
