Thanks to all who have posted about bodybugg I saw one for the first time on biggest loser. I know this will aid in my weight loss and now I see that others have used it and it makes me feel better now that I spent the money

Thanks:thumbup:

I ordered my bodybugg and it's due to arrive via UPS on Wednesday. Yay....I can't wait. I'm curious how many calories I burn doing nothing as a couch potato right now. LOL. And sleeping too...that should be interesting to know.

Then, I"m hoping the motivation will kick in....I can't wait. How many people have the new version 3 with the digital display thingy???

I just got mine on Thursday and I'm sure it will definitely help with my weight loss. I've become really aware of my intake and output.

So...I got my BB wednesday evening and wore it that night...yup, to bed...and it said i burn like 500 cals just sleeping. How interesting?!

Anyway, I had some trouble with the digital display...it kept saying out of sync or can't find the arm band. I was starting to wonder if I wasted my money. But, 3 days later, and I've got it working all in sync. Yay!

I pushed myself to get off the couch and exercise....did the WiiFit for like 45 min and today I actually hauled myself to the gym.

So to summarize...I think I love this thing. I am so motivated now and think this was a big key for me and my band.

I would ask, You must maintain an active subscription in order to access the data collected by the bodybugg, or the subscription is not required to use the bodybugg?

Yes you need an active subscription to get access to the data collected by the bodybugg for the website.

I Love my Body Bugg....if for no other reason it makes me so aware of how sedintary i am sometimes and makes me accountable to get up and move. Wheter or not its 100% accurate or not it really does give me a measure to go by. Its great to see how much your activity or lack thereof effects your weight loss. I dont regret this purchase at all. I've been wearing for a month and it's just second nature and part of my daily fashion statement. Eventhough its winter everywhere else in the world its summertime in California, 80degress and short sleeve weather, which promtps alot of questions about that "thing" on my arm. Hope everyone is well, take care!

After a week of having mine...I loved it already. Broke through a weight loss slump. Unfortunately, something's wrong with mine. It doesn't hold the charge. I'm dealing with tech support and hopefully, they are sending me a new one. I hope it's not because I'm using a Mac.

I just bought the GoWear Fit which is very similar to the BB. I received it on the 6th and so far I really like it. The only problem is I have a blister on my arm under where it was sitting yesterday. I moved the band down and hope I am not going to have skin issues from wearing it so much. My skin is pretty sensitive. :smile2:

I've got the GoWear Fit like CC does, and I love it. At first I was uploading the info every single night. Now I do it every few days.

I not only like that I log what I eat (which keeps me accountable), but that it gives me other specs on how/what I did during the day. The pedometer is great and helps you realize how much walking your somewhat sedentary job may get you, and I love seeing the graphs which show what I did during specific activity.

Because the two work together -- i.e. you're not just logging what you eat and you're not just logging steps or activity -- it gives you a fuller understanding of what you're doing. You set a calorie deficit for each day and can monitor yourself and how you're doing.

If anything, it just keeps you in tune with your body and eating habits.

I was very faithfully wearing my Bodybugg and logging my food in, etc. and then I went on vacation out of state for a week where I didn't have internet access to upload the data off it or to charge it on the computer via its USB cable and when I got home, it wouldn't upload no matter what I tried. I spent an hour and 15 minutes on the phone with the Bodybugg support guy (call center in Mexico) and they finally decided it was defective and they would send me a new one. So far 10 days and no new Bodybugg has arrived. Getting a little frustrated.

Anybody else had similar experience?

      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.
