Bodybugg users report here!

At first I said yes, and then when I figured out that I couldn't get it registered, I changed it. My justification was that the types of surgeries that were given in the examples were cases where malabsorption issues occur. I figured it didn't apply to me. I talked to Gay Riley, the nutrition gal and she confirmed that I didn't need to check it for Lap Band surgery. Use your judgement though.

I'm laughing because I said yes at first and then changed it to no when I saw I wouldn't be able to register it too. I rationalized it by saying that our bands are merely for reduction in calories not malabsorption as you noted. None of you seem to be having any rpoblems with weight loss so I'm guessing it won't be an issue. I'll see.

How is everyone doing with their bugg?

The BodyBugg is great! I miss the days of being able to burn 4,000 calories...it seems that my body has become much more efficient recently and I am lucky to hit 2500 calories burned in a day with 1 hour of exercise.

My average burn for the last 2 weeks was 2800 a day.

This morning I worked out for 2.5 hours and I am only projected to burn about 2750 calories. Yikes!

OKAY.... so I want to know if the Body Bugg is worth all the hype !! I am about to purchase one online but I just want to make sure. I read that it doesn't actually keep track of how many calories consumed so how do you know that you are burning enough????? Just wondering if it's worth the $350! :confused2:

OH SORRY.... one more question!!!..... Do you really have to wear it all day everyday?

Darby,

I've had mine for 4 weeks and have been able to loose the amount I projected I wanted to loose. No it doesnt track calories consumed, you have to input those into your diary everyday. Yes I think it is recommended that you wear it every day for the first few weeks. I wear mine all the time because I'm still not to the point to where I can manage my intake and burn everyday. I ordered mine from 24 hour fitness for $220....without the display, but with a 3 month subscription.

I have done pretty crappy the past few days. Here's the deal. I logged my food, I increased my exercise. I had an average deficit of over 1500cal per day. i am so sore from my kickboxing class that i can hardly walk. What do I get for all of this..... I gained 1 pound this past week. No it isn't TOM. I am sooooo very frustrated. I haven't done well the last couple of days. I feel like it is probably water weight, but I am having a really hard time. I didn't even wear my bugg the last 2 days. YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't doubt the bugg at all...... I figure I am gaining muscle because I have significantly increased my exercise. I do love my bugg, but I am having a hard time picking myself up to keep pushing like I have been.. Any suggestions.....
