Yeah, I do agree with you, but I find that when I am at 15% incline, busting my butt trying to keep up, I am burning at 9.6 c/m. When I bring it back down to 8%, I am burning 7.8 c/m. So now, I tend to stay at 8% incline so I am not dead tired when I finish. :faint:

Hey there everyone! I've had my BB for 9 days now.... I am having a love/hate relationship with it. I guess its mostly because it is setting me straight!! Before I got the bugg, I used to go to the gym and do 30 min on the treadmill at 15 incline and 3.0 mph. After my time was up, it said I averaged about 500 caloris. WELLL after getting the bugg, I find out that I am only burning like 270. WTH!! Now I now that when I am on the tread, I am holding on for dear life, but I didnt think that by holding on to the treadmill I would losing out on that many calories... It was a bummer at first, but actually it was a real eye opener. another thing I realized after reading one of the articles on the apex site is that I can stay in the fat burning zone and still lose a good amount of calories as compared to exercising in the cardio zone. That is one thing I was not FULLY aware of. So instead of trying to kill myself on the tread, I can lower the incline a bit and still be as effective. This lil bit of knowledge has totally changed the way I coordinate my work outs. So in all, I really really really LOVE MY BB. I have been hitting over 1500 deficit (my goal) and I am losing. This is so wonderful. Since being banded, I have gained and lost several times and have only netted a 25lb lost (25lbs in almost 1 year is a slow loser if I ever saw one) But I have hopes that with my band and this BB, I will eventually get to goal. Thanks to everyone here for all your enthusiasm, which motivated me to get my BB.... :confused:

Sorry, never heard of her. But I also never been to Olney either, lol. My doc was Dr. Moazzez, at INOVA fair oaks in Va. He was great!

Kaydotrn, I ordered from 24 hour fitness and the same thing happened (it said pending) The website never did update with my tracking info. I had to email them to ask about it an then they emailed me the tracking number. I ordered on the 19th, with the free ground shipping so in all it took 10 (of the longest) days to get here. But well worth it now.

Hit the treadmill till I made my deficit... This is such a great too (aside from my band of course ) I am tired as heck but just want go for another 10 min... I swear if I dont lose now, I am just a frickn LLLLooser (or would that be gainer ) Suzzzie- I am right there with ya girl.. I wold have been stopping every minute to check the digital display for cal/min ... (although I am sad to hear about this man situation) Sweety- The white chocoate chip did sound good. But I had to make my deficit for the day... so I will sneak it into my meals tomorrow. Yeahh to all BodyBuggers... (and those soon to get bugged too )
