I also hate logging the food. Some of the most common things you would assume is there isnt. I think this week since I need to watch what Im eating more close anyway, Im just going to get everything logged and than just stick with the same meal each day so that I dont have to worry about searching and logging the food. Besides that, I love my bug it is showing me exactually why Im not losing.

Lol. I understand not wanting to answer questions. I'm reduced to just telling family and co-workers that its a really high tech fancy pedometer.

LOL, That's exactly what I tell people. They usually act like they want to ask more questions, but if they don't, I don't volunteer any information.

I ran today and holy crap! I burned 14.5 calories a minute! wow.

I ran 35 minutes almost 3 miles. I think running days mon. wed. and fri. are really going to help boost that deficit.

I started running with the couch to 5k program a few months ago and haven't run a month! so i was pleasantly surprised that I could still run a good distance without stopping.

today is my first coaching session.

I just got my bugg today and got set up online. I'm wearing it now and learning to use it with the wrist sensor. VERY COOL!!! When I registered, it asked if you had bariatric surgery and then said you had to contact their dietician. I did that, but am wondering what that entails when she gets back to you? Does it change your plan or something? Thanks for the info!!! I'm SO excited to have the BUGG!!!

In your BB program, click on "My resources" then click on "reminders". You can schedule it to beep on your arm to remind you to get up and stretch or walk.

my goodness destiny! WTG! YOur right they may not give you a fill, maybe if you explain how you are doing it and that you need a bit of help because you can't go on much longer starving.

I am in dire need of another fill as well. I can eat like preband almost. I am hungry about every hour.

I've bid on a couple Bodybuggs on ebay in hopes of getting one that is affordable enough for me to buy. How on earth did you all afford this little thing? Sorry to intrude...it's just so expensive. Is there a great deal on it somewhere that I'm totally missing?

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.

      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.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
