Ok, I have read many pages of this thread and am convinced... I just sent an email to my hubby with the link telling him I want a body bug for Christmas. Crossing my fingers that he gets me one, lol.

I don't know, but certainly without the watch you would get nothing out of it. There are no display screens, you can only tell what is going on when you upload to the computer. It is sooo worth it though!!

Watching my calories is actually fun!:bounce:

I got my bugg today--just had some time to myself finally--set it up and put it on!!!!! :whoo: I ordered the watch yesterday when it went on sale so now I'm waitng for that. I have a question--based on how I answered my questionaire, my food has me at 60% carbohydrates, 20% Protein and 20% fat. Does anyone know what this would equate to regarding protein intake--how many grams per day? I thought I'd be at a highter protein percentage, but that;s ok--I'm still going to eat how I eat now and adjust it if need be. What do you do if you're really under that calorie intact they have for you? Based on my weight it says that should be eating around 1750 calories a day--that seems like a lot to me. :( Can't wait to really figure this out!

They'll go over all of that with you during your phone coaching sessions. You should be getting a call or e-mail from them in the next day or so. Meantime, have fun with it!

1 gr of protein = 4 calories

1 gr of carb's = 4 calories

1 gr of fat - 9 calories

Thank you!

Another quick question--did you tell your coach that you had lap band? Since I read in a previous post to no check bariatric surgery, I didn't-so I could continue to set up my bugg. But does that affect your coach and how they help?

I did, and she said that the way the coaching sessions are handled are a bit different if you've JUST been banded. But she said it really didn't make a difference otherwise.

I haven't had my session with her yet. I did answer the question NO during the set-up.

I will be honest when I do have my session.

Good Night.

Ok. WEIRDEST thing...

Halfway through the day today my display thingy said it wasn;t 'in sync' with the BB. So I pressed the buttons like I always do, and then it said that the armband wasn't registered? I was so confused! And of course I was at work, so I couldn't go to the BB website to check it out.

When I did get home I uploaded all my stuff like usual without any problems, even though the display still said it wasn't registered. After I uploaded my activity for the day the display suddenly worked, but is off on the calories by about 100o and says I've only taken 67 steps today?? I think I'll wait through tomorrow to see how it works. If its still all jacked up I guess I'll call the BB people? What do ya'll think?

Yep, I had to have my digital display reset tonight. The number to call is 866.314.9423. That's the bodybugg tech support number, and they were very helpful to me. :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
