Body Bugg??



Recommended Posts

I'm just curious what how the body bugg system works, and how useful it is. I've seen that some people on here have them. I've been to the website, and it wasn't very self-explanatory. Any body know anything about them?

I've had my body bugg for a week now and I LOVE IT!!! The way it works is, you wear it on your right arm and throughout the day it senses and records every single calorie your body burns, weather you are sittting down or running up and down stairs with laundry, doing dishes, everything is recorded. It also records how many steps you have taken and it tells you how many calories a minute you are burning. They have a website where you down load all your info onto and you then record what you have eaten throughout the day. it then tells you how many more calories you have to burn or what you can and cannot eat to meet your daily goal to facilitate your weight loss. It has alot more too. It is very motivating, I don't think I have ever been so active in my life. Its like a game I'm playing and want to win. How many calories can I burn... So far this past week I have had a calorie deficit of 2200-2400 a day, that like 3/4 of a lbs a day. And let me tel you the weight and espeacialy the inches are coming off.

Yes I have the watch. The watch tells you right then and there all you stats, calories burned, steps taken, how many mins of activity, for today and yesterday , also what your target calorie burn for the day is, how many cals a min you are burning. If you don't have the watch you have to wait to be at your computer to get all this info. As for sleeping, the manual says that you should wear it to bed for the first 2 days and after that it is up to you. If you don't wear it to bed it automaticlly just assumes that you are burning 1 cal per min while you sleep, I have actually been really burning between 1.3-1.7 cals per min while I sleep, so I have been wearing it to bed, cause I wakeup in the morning with a higher number than I would if I didn't wear it.

      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.
