Bodybugg vs BodyMedia Fit



Recommended Posts

Would you tell me which you feel is the better one? I've researched both, and they seem to both be pretty good.

I do like the idea of the Fit monitoring your sleep as well.

Are either of them waterproof for swimming?

Thanks for your help in making my decision!

Don't forget the FitBit - it also monitors your sleep and though not waterproof (because it can't track swimming) it will allow you to enter that you swam for XX minutes and will add that to your caloric burn. The website is also free with FitBit and the tool itself only costs $99. I've been using it for a year now and love it. It tracks effortlessly. Is very effective. And is much much less expensive than the other options.

You can wear the Bodybugg while sleeping also. In the online program you can set your wake hours and sleep hours. For example, I set mine as being awake at 6:30am and bedtime as 9pm. The Bodybugg isn't waterproof so I do have to take if off during showers. However, the Bodybugg knows when its off the body so when you go to upload it to your computer, you can tell the program what you were doing while it was off the body. It then can give you an estimate as to what you were burning during that time.

I love my Bodybugg. It has helped me lose a lot of weight.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
