Do any of you use a Bodybugg or device to measure the amount of calories you burn during exercise? How can I calculate what I burning daily?

Thanks!

I have a Bodybugg. I used it for a while until I got my routine down, it's a good tool for that. Fitbit does the same and I think it is a little less expensive.

I lost 30 lbs fat and gained 15 lbs lean muscle mass when i was using body bugg. It was sooo motivating. I dont like that you have to pay a subscription though. And that you cant connect it to alot of apps such as MyDiaryNet. I dont wanna double log my food. But its the only device proven to exactly measure calories burned during wake and sleep hours. I want fit bit bc it works with my app but i got reviews that its not very accurate. And body bugg was proven accurate by some US legal affiliation. I wanna say fda but not sure. I JUST read this. Trainers like bodybugg. BB dwnside: the skin underneath it doesnt get enough sun and so ur left with embarrassing tan lines. Not discreet and falls off slightly as u sweat.

Nalasmom...go to eBay and buy a 12 month subscription. I paid just $28 for the year for mine. And I only paid $50 for my bodybugg/Bodymedia band. eBay is our friend. Lol.

I just ordered the FitBit $99.95. There's no subscription fee all the tools online are free. In comparing all the stuff out there I think the FitBit does the most for the least cost.....food logging, monitoring excersie, sleeping patterns, etc. Plus it's really small and you don't have to wear a band around your arm :)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
