Woohoo! Congrats! I must admit I was at first wondering what all the fuss was about. Now that I've had mine for about 2 weeks (and blasted through a 9-week plateau), I am a believer and a LOVER of the BB!!! My sister even bought one (and she doesn't really have any weight to lose LOL)

Enjoy!!!!

Does this sound right? I burn more calories doing a Walk Away The Pounds video for an hour than I do on the ellptical at an average of 4.2 mph? The elliptical said I burned 600 something calories and my BB said I burned like 400 something calories. I guess I should believe my BB before I believe the elliptical?

The more weight bearing an activity is- typically the more calories we burn. So on the elliptical, there is no impact and the machine supports your weight-- you'll burn less (unless you turn the resistance up a lot). Walking, even in place or back and forth in your living room, is more weight bearing. I know that my BB says I burn a lot more doing something like kickboxing or step than if I indoor cycle.

And the machine calorie counters are notoriously way off!

It's nice to have because you don't have to plug in your BB to see how much you've burned during the day. I find it to be a great motivator. It will tell you how many calories you are burning per minute so it motivates me to bump up the intensity because I like to watch ALL the numbers jump up. :confused: Now that I have it I would be lost without it. You also don't have to wear it as a watch. It comes w/ a clip that you can use to attach it to your clothes, maybe even on your bra/sports bra where no one can see it. It's not bad looking but it's also not the most stylish looking thing, either. I do wear mine as a watch, though. Doesn't matter to me either way.

You all have got me into this BB thing. So I went and ordered it last Friday....It is killing me to wait till the 4th....that's when the tracking says it will be delivered. I am very excited to get it and use it! :biggrin:

Lucky you, I did not notice that the free shipping meant ground so I wont get it till today or tomorrow. But all good things happen to those who wait :biggrin: Have fun workout the buggs then you can walk me through ......lololol jkjk

I would be glad to help you. The booklet that comes with the Bugg is pretty clear. It takes a little while to set up and then it takes 3 hours to charge the Bugg before it can be used. The important thing: On the medical sheet that you complete, DO NOT tell them you have had lap band/bariatric surgery. I had to laugh because it tells me that I need to consume 2100 calories a day, that ain't happening.

I am supposed to be getting my Bodybugg today!!!!! I can't wait to get home to open the package. I have spent the last week reading all of your posts and I even saw someone walking down the street yesterday with one on! Looking forward to joining you all in the craze!

I still use Internet Explorer (much to my husband's chagrin) and I didn't have any problems. The tech support at BodyBugg is great-- you might give them a call. I don't remember what coast they're on, but they might still be there...
