Hello everyone. How is everyone doing with their bugg? As for me. I've been having an average daily deficit of 4600 calories and have only lost 1-2 pounds in the past two weeks. This week will be even larger since I just had a fill this past Thursday. What do you suspect it could be? My intake is an average of 1600 these past two weeks, but this week it's about 1000 because of the fill. Thanks in advance for the insight.

Georgia girl, that has only happend when I've had it off for more than 30 mins also. If it doesnt pop up that means it is still calculating your calories burned.

Sense, not offended, just seemed weird.

Sensewear, I find it a little confusing that you are trying to promote this product to people who have spent $250 or more on the body bugg already. Maybe if your wanting to promote this product you should open a new thread...that way people can decide which one they are wanting.

Tulip, putting weight in once a month sounds like a good idea. Keywestgirl, sounds like you got a good deal. Did it include your online membership also?

I like you have measured everything. I only had one day of no measuring food and that was on mother's day. Mine also say I eat about 3000 calories per day based on my weight loss or gain for that matter. I will continue the bugg on. I know I need a fill, so hopefully it will give me more restriction and that will help with the amount consumed.

renewed, I know exactly where your coming from. I also logged every single thing this week, made sure my deficit was at least 1700 per day and only lost 1 pound!!! When I looked at my progess based on my weight, it said I had a daily average deficit of 600 calories!!!! What the heck...I dont get it.

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.

How is everyone doing with their bugg?

thanks lonestar, yeah we're pretty excited. he has lost over 30 lbs without it, just following my methods, so now he's gonna wait till June to have it.

Congrats everyone on your NSV!!! I'm not sure if this is one, but I've had some fellow teachers say that they've noticed I lost weight. Some know I have the band, but some think I'm on a really strict diet. Well today for the first time I had one of my students say that it looks like I'm getting smaller!!! a 16 year old, never notices anything about an adult because they are so into themselves. It made me smile really big!!!

Hey everyone, thanks for the feedback. I have another fill on 6/5, so when I go in, I will have that talk with him. I went to Denny's yesterday for mother's day and decided not to wear my bugg and just eat what I wanted. Well I couldn't even eat 1/4 of my food really. Now I'm wondering if the reason that I'm not really feeling restriction is because I've been eating low calorie food or "diet" food. I dont know what to think now.

Hey everyone, Welcome all the new bugg users. Fenton, I see you came on over to the bugg side :wink2:. Happy to see a fellow Shamrock here. You will find it's worth every penny. Renewedhope, I also didn't wear it for the majority of the day and tried not to count calories, but still ended up putting my intake in. I went to Denny's to celebrate mothers day with my family and tried to eat everything I wanted and my band stepped in and showed me who's boss. I couldn't even eat a 1/4 of my meal. So today instead of saying I love my bugg!! I'll say I love my band!!! And I thought I didn't have restriction.

Hello fellow bandsters: I'm so glad you all are talking about this. I too feel as though I'm hungary all the time. It starts everyday at around 10 am. I usually only drink a low carb slim fast in the morning and that last for 3 or 4 hours. After that, I snack on 100 calorie Snacks in between meals. Every 2 hours I feel like I'm starving. I restrict myself to 1400 calories per day according to my body bugg program. I think if it wasnt for me having to log into that program everyday, I would be still gaining weight instead of loosing. Because I have to hold myself accountable by logging, I try to make the right decisions. I have my next fill on June 5th....8 weeks after my first one. My doctor too is conservative, and that makes me angry. My insurance only paid for the first few fills, so I want to be able to reach my "sweet spot" before I have to start paying for it myself. I only have 2cc's in now and am hopeful to get another 2 next time I go.

innertube, wow that's great!!! I would love to see your before and after pics when your done. I'm sure your husband will love it.

I purchased mine from 24 hour fitness also. I've lost 6 pounds this week. So far for the 3 week wear, I've lost 11 pounds!!!. I dont feel any restriction, so I've really been struggling with being hungary. georgia girl. when i first signed up, it said I should eat 2000 calories per day. I adjusted it to 1400 calories, to try to get a 3.75 weight loss per week. I havent scheduled my session yet. I've e-mailed and called and left a message to have one, but no response.

Is anyone having problems taking Vitamins??? I've never been a real pill taker. I've been able to take my B1's fine because theyre small, but for some reason I cant take these calcium citrate pills. I bought the smaller ones and stil cut those in half. Because I have to take 1200mg a day, that means I have to swallow 12 pieces. I cant get them down. I gag everytime I try. Can anyone recommend anything that will help me??:confused2:

Yep that's about right. This is going on my third weeks. I have it set 3.75 lbs per week. The first week was awesome. last week wasnt that great. I believe it was water weight, cuz I weighed myself the day after my weigh in date and I dropped the 4lbs I was looking for. I'll know what I did this week on Saturday. I havent been working out this week, so I dont know what it will be.
