Body Bugg or Body Media?

[spoiltmom 44]

How many of you use one of these? Which one would you recommend?

They both have a pedometer built in right?

I have one and really like it. I used to over estimate the amount of exercise I was getting. Not anymore.

You are also able to track your calorie intake and the amount of calories you have burned in a day.

Also your sleep efficiency.

They aren't cheap. And the only draw back I can find is that you can't wear it in the pool to measure calorie burn in a pool. You are able to input that info on the website though. But I love mine. Mine is a Body Media Fitt. Make sure to buy one from costco or some other place where a 1 year membership is included.

I find myself downloading the info right after dinner and looking at my level of activity for the day....and if I need to walk some more to achieve my goals, I do!

BTW - yes a pedometer is built into them.

You can check them out at Bodymedia.com

I believe the Body Bug is the earlier version of Body Media.

Love my body media fit. I walked 6.3 miles yesterday just to beat my previous record. I don't use the meal tracking part because I use LoseIt but I do input the total number of calories I had each day. It is beyond comfortable to wear and sleep with. I only plug it in when I am showering and it has stayed charged. I also sometimes check in on my iPhone so I can see how I am doing for the day.

Consider the FitBit (http://fitbit.com).

I have the Bodymedia Fit. They also make the Bodybugg. As I understand it, the major difference is the Bodymedia Fit masures your sleep quality, where the Bodybugg doesn't. I don't find the sleep info all that important to me (and I can't change what it reads anyway) so I'd say get whichever is cheaper. BestBuy had the Fit on sale for $30 off recently.

I wear mine all the time, and swear by it. I haven't measured a thing, and I use the armband to keep track of ALL the day's activity and calories for me. The pedometer built in measures things multiple ways - it's more than just a step counter. It makes this whole weight loss thing SO easy. I can't say enough good things about it, or recommend it more highly. It's worth every cent.

Go to Bodymedia.com to read more about it.

I got the BodyBugg from 24 hr fitness and I love being in more control. The SP will sync with you android phone and give you current details whenever you need info. During the first month, I lost 8 lbs just because i was able to keep track of everything. BodyBugg is made by Body Media (APEX)...either way, the results are in how you use it.
