About Mio
The story of Mio began in 1999 when it was created by entrepreneur and mother of three, Liz Dickinson. Like many of us, Liz balances family and career, leaving little time for fitness. After several unsuccessful attempts to achieve her fitness goals and shed the pregnancy weight-gain of her third child, Liz turned to a personal trainer for advice. While working with a trainer, Liz realized the key to getting in shape and staying in shape is to practice smart eating habits, monitoring calorie intake, and using a heart rate monitor to ensure that she exercises at the right level. Liz realized there wasn't a product available on the market that would easily help her follow her trainer’s advice.

Liz didn't have time to read labels and carry a calorie journal in her purse, nor did she have much patience for the uncomfortable chest strap she had to wear to get her heart rate. She knew there had to be a better way, so Liz used her technology and marketing savvy to create Mio, the world’s first heart rate monitor to work without a chest strap. And, it didn't stop with just heart rate, as Mio also has a patented calorie management system that offers a straightforward approach to managing your diet. With the help of Mio and a balanced diet, Liz was able to shed those unwanted pounds and gain the benefits that come with improved fitness: more energy, more vitality, and less stress, and help many others do the same with the creation of Mio's products.

I love my Mio! It is easy to use and understand. I use all the features including the calorie counter and the feature that measures calories burned during a workout. I have compared the heartrate monitor to all of the other heartrate monitors in the gym (attached to the bikes and treadmills)it has always been within 2 beats per minute of those. There are a few things to know before you purchase one: they are a bit large, it sticks up off of my writ quite a bit and tends to catch on things; when I first got it it was uncomfortable because of the size it tended to hurt the top of my wrist and hand; also, the petite band is pretty petite, I have it on the last notch and it fits OK but would be more comfortable if I could move it one more notch. Overall I would highly recommend this tool. It has helped me safely lose 25 pounds.

I love being able to take my heart rate in seconds without having to wear a chest strap.
The watch is easy to program, easy to use, easy to read- even in the dark or underwater with the backlight.
The calorie counter is also very helpful (and motivating!)
The only delta is that even though I ordered it in the petite size, the face of the watch is still rather large and at times slightly uncomfortable to wear because the large watch face limits wrist movement.

I have been using this heart rate monitor for a few weeks now. It seems to be very accurate in monitoring both heart rate and calories burned during a work out. I like that I can keep track of calories in vs. calories out. I liked it so much I bought one for my husband and father. If you don't want to track calories in you can get the sport select and I think it is a little less expensive. Worth the money in my opinion.
