BodyMedia Fit Core



Recommended Posts

Anybody else out there using the BodyMedia Core armband? I have some questions & haven't been able to find the answers on the web. For example, how do you adjust the 'Calories Consumed' section to below 1000?

My bodymedia (link) should be here in a couple of days :) Sorry I'm not able to answer your question and I'm mostly purchasing it to use with mfp.

**UPDATE**

So it doesn't look like there's a way to adjust the calories. But even so, I really like the BodyMedia vs the FitBit. I get so much more data, and WAY more accurate than I did with the FitBit! Definitely worth it, considering I paid about the same for both.

I've heard there's a new BodyMedia coming out this Fall - hoping it is as small as the Core but syncs with my phone. That is the biggest drawback in my opinion. I didn't go with the Link because it was larger than the Core, but I do wish I could see the data on my phone instead of having to hook up to my laptop everyday. I bought the display that goes with the Core, but have found that it's just one more thing to 'put on' everyday, so I've stopped using it. My iPhone is always with me, so that would be really convenient.

All in all, happy with the purchase & would recommend it.

      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.
