suzzie you are absolutely right. I also got mine for the price of $279. I saved $100 a month for 3 months to get it. I really want the watch too.

Quick question...

When I wear the armband all night long, my energy expenditures are higher, vs. when I take it off.

However, I have only had my bugg for a week or so, so I have no idea if this is because of me not wearing it at night, or due to my body burning a different amount of calories each day.

Any ideas?

Also, TMI! Is there an activity category for SEX? Seriously! I couldn't find anything in there. I mean doing it for an hour has GOT to make a difference --- and it isn't fun wearing one while doing it so I need to go in and manually enter the calories myself.

no and i really wish there was. even my food log has it in their activity section (2 settings i believe, passive and active :biggrin:)

i've actually forgotten to take it off a couple of times when just bottoms were removed (way tmi - sorry) and the cals per minute burn was interesting. not as much as i thought it would be. i told DH if i didnt go work out, he'd have to help me out ... :rolleyes:

How long was it, and what was it like?????? I saw that packaged with some scales in Target last weekend when I was scale shopping. I ALMOST bought one, but finally decided that I didn't "need" the dvd, so I went with another scale.

it comes with 3 levels 1st is bob 20 min entire body workout level 2 jillian 10 min cardio drill and 3 rd is kim 10 min kickboxing, 5 min warm up and 5 min cool down with bob. it gives you the option when the dvd first start to choose what exercises you want to so I selected 5 min warm up 20 min with bob and 5 min cool down , it was so awesome I am looking forward to doing it with jillian grr...

Ok, so I'm a bit confused. None of the workouts are over 30 minutes? And you were able to get a 460 calorie burn in that amount of time????

if you add 5 min warm up and 5 min cool down it was 30 min. but the goal is to mix and match workout to equal 30 min and change up workout so you want get bored with the same old thing , what I did was 5 min warm up 20 min bob workout and 5 min cool down yoga=30 min bugg said I buned 460 calories. I down load infor right before I started my workout just to see how much I would burn with the dvd.

Sounds like a nice workout. Unfortunatly, my apt is so small I can barely manage to do the walk-away-the-pounds DVDs. Lol. I have a Tae Bo Cardio DVD that I tried to do once... I knocked over a houseplant and kicked my recliner twice. Lol.

DO NOT buy a used one - unless it is VERY cheap... BECAUSE in order to use it you have to buy a BodyBugg subscription with the 2 coaching sessions which I think costs $199. (correct me if I'm wrong here people) So the most cost effective way is to just buy you a new one! I think most of us here got ours from24 Hour Fitness: 24 Hour Fitness Centers and Health Clubs Sometimes they go on sale, you just have to watch for it. I got my Bugg for $229 and free shipping, got my display watch for $69 + shipping.

Suzzzie... what if they give you the password to use their remaining subscription? Doesn't everyone have to pay the yearly fee even if it is bought new?

Someone on LBT is selling theirs for $175 with 1 month remaining on the initial registration. Is that not a good deal?

      Sometimes reading the posts here make me wonder if some people just weren't mentally ready for WLS and needed more time with the bariatric team psychiatrist. Complaining about the limited drink/food choices early on... blah..blah...blah. The living to eat mentality really needs to go and be replaced with eating to live. JS

        We have to remember that everyone moves at their own pace. For some it may be harder to adjust, people may have other factors at play that feed into the unhealthy relationship with food e.g. eating disorders, trauma. I'd hope those who you are referring to address this outside of this forum, with a professional.


        This is a place to feel safe to vent, seek advice, hopefully without judgement.


        Compassion goes a long way :)

        Seems it would be more compassionate not to perform a WLS on someone until they are mentally ready for it. Unless of course they are on death's door...

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.
