Do any of you use a Bodybugg or device to measure the amount of calories you burn during exercise? How can I calculate what I burning daily?

Thanks!

I have a Bodybugg. I used it for a while until I got my routine down, it's a good tool for that. Fitbit does the same and I think it is a little less expensive.

I lost 30 lbs fat and gained 15 lbs lean muscle mass when i was using body bugg. It was sooo motivating. I dont like that you have to pay a subscription though. And that you cant connect it to alot of apps such as MyDiaryNet. I dont wanna double log my food. But its the only device proven to exactly measure calories burned during wake and sleep hours. I want fit bit bc it works with my app but i got reviews that its not very accurate. And body bugg was proven accurate by some US legal affiliation. I wanna say fda but not sure. I JUST read this. Trainers like bodybugg. BB dwnside: the skin underneath it doesnt get enough sun and so ur left with embarrassing tan lines. Not discreet and falls off slightly as u sweat.

Nalasmom...go to eBay and buy a 12 month subscription. I paid just $28 for the year for mine. And I only paid $50 for my bodybugg/Bodymedia band. eBay is our friend. Lol.

I just ordered the FitBit $99.95. There's no subscription fee all the tools online are free. In comparing all the stuff out there I think the FitBit does the most for the least cost.....food logging, monitoring excersie, sleeping patterns, etc. Plus it's really small and you don't have to wear a band around your arm :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
