Okay so I'm registered, plugged in and battery should be done charging soon. Does everyone recommend I start in the morning or when I go to bed? I am not sure when the best time is.....

When you go to bed that way tomorrow will be complete. How many calories did it tell you to burn?

Hi Juliansmom...you have to seperate the "frame" from th device it self. If you hold the device facing you, bracing the outter frame with your index fingers and press on the center of the device with you thumbs,but not applying any pressure to the back it should pop (away from you ) right out.

Thanks so much for your help! :scared2:

You've probably figured it out by now... but hold onto the outer square and press hard in the corner by the last "g" in bodybugg. You have to press hard-- don't worry- it won't break! (it took me a while to figure out how to get it out, too.)

Does the bodybugg register your sleep?

Sure does! I've had this thing less than 24 hours and I'm in love with it already!

The only thing that's a pain in the tush so far is the food logging, as I've had to manually enter several things already, but since I eat mostly the same things (I'm boring LOL), it will save it so I don't have to re-enter constantly.

For those iPhone users, I'm looking for the app on my iPod touch, but it doesn't seem to be coming up. I did a search for "bodybugg" and "body bugg". Should I be searching something else?

Thanks!

My Bodybugg is being dumb! :smile: While I was walking it seemed like the display was pausing. Minutes would go by and the amount of calories I was burning per minute wasn't going up. So I tried to reboot my band (not thinking it was maybe just something wrong with the communication between the band and the display) and now it says my band isn't set up and I can't connect it to the computer while I'm at work! I rebooted yesterday just fine without having to reconnect it. Why's it being so idiotic today?! :smile2:

It tells me I should burn 3450 calories and that I should consume 2400 calories. Each person is different. It depends on your goals that you set, your weight, and health.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
