Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted January 30, 2008 How is it able to count the calories burned? You just wear it and it computes them? I stink at the computer and I don't want anything that I have to plug into the computer, or download information, etc. It would be great to have something to wear that is somehow able to keep track of the calories burned.

MickATL 3 Posted January 30, 2008 That is basically it. You put it on every morning. You wear it all day. It has a built in accelerometer that knows when you are moving and how hard you are moving. It somehow converts that movement into calories burned. You do have to enter some information about yourself so it can figure it out. Here's basically how it works: BioTrainer Weight Loss System ™ - measure physical activity and caloric burn You don't have to use their online system to track your calories in and have it analyze the #of calories you burn everyday, but I think it's pretty cool. They offer 10% off to WLS patients with the discount code: WLS. It's like free shipping. I also found this demo on their site of the online nutritional program.
