Bodybugg users report here!

Hi, well, I've been reading the bodybugg reports and finally got one after not being able to lose a pound after 6 weeks. I was banded on February 13, 2007. At that time, I weighed 271.4. Six weeks ago, I weighed in at 246 and went back up to 249 due to fat loss/muscle gain. (Not complaining there) that is where I stayed until now. I wasn't depressed since I thought I was doing everything right. I was eating less and excercising more. Well, at least that is what I thought until I got the bodybugg. Pudin' was a big inspiration for that one. I've had the BB for 3 days now and I finally broke through the plateu. I'm right back to 246 with more fat loss and muscle gain. It's so exciting.

I guess I needed lapband and armband. I'm just banded everywhere. LOL!! It really is motivating to see where you are at with the numbers. Even though I was exercising my butt off, it still wasn't enough and now, I know how much more I have to exercise through the day. It's fun to see the scale going down again. Finally!!!

Anyways, I think we should log our stats for the bodybugg on here. It's really fun!!

So far, 3lb weight loss on the bodybugg/lapband from June 4-7. YEAH!!!

    The bodybugg is meant to be worn on the right arm. There are sensors on the bodybugg that detect body temp and air temp and if you have it on the left arm, those sensors will be backwards. Now if you

Okay Jackie I am going to trust you and go for it! I hope I don't have to hunt you down for fibbing to me! lol jk. I really appreciate the info.

you will love your new toy, oopps I mean tool!

Jackie,

How long is this deal for??? I know I just went on their website and the deal is still good. (My b-day is on the 26th and I've asked for this as a gift.)

I told my friend if he wasn't going to get it for me, I needed to know b/c I can't pass this deal up!!!

Thanks for the info!

hey my birthday is Oct 26th too! Happy Birthday to us, I think I am going to get the wristwatch as a present for myself.
It IS a good deal, if you saw my post from a couple days ago, I only paid $229.20 for my Bugg. I didn't get the display watch, though I may ask for it for Christmas!!

And someone asked about a code for the display, there isn't one that I know of... but if I figure it out I'll let you all know! Lol!!

Thanks Suzzzie, that was me asking about the display...i'm really loving my bugg. There are days I don't wear it because I can't fit it under a tight sweater, but for the most part, I put it on before I put on my wedding ring in the AM! Shhhh don't tell the DH.

Lol! I've already told everyone at work to expect to see me wearing it religiously! Luckily I'm a nurse, so I wear scrubs and the Bugg will fit nicely under my scrub sleeves! I just checked the UPS shipment site and it is 'In Transit. On Time.' Should be here Monday... however if my roommate isn't home I won't get it until they make a return trip on Tuesday!! Wahhh!!

I need to change jobs...I would KILL to wear scrubs daily...no seriously, I need to change jobs.

I've been wearing mine for 5 days now....it's a winner!! I really like it! Two thumbs up.

Do you find that you're up and about more in the evening trying to get those numbers up? That's the biggest win I have found for having mine. Normally I would be relaxing and watching tv late, but if my numbers are down i'll pull out my mini trampoline and fidget, jump and march in place. My 3 year old makes me "take turns" if she's still up though so that can be a challenge...:faint:

THats always good to hear! All the rave reviews I've heard here have convinced me it was a good buy!

that's the best part for me- I went on an extra long walk with the dogs last night to make certain I'd hit my goal deficit. Need one of those wristband monitors so I can up the activity during the work day also

yea bodybugg pepole!

I have been wearing mine since Tuesday and I definately am sitting less...I want to keep those numbers where they belong. I am going to order the digital part as it would make me move even more if I knew where I stood (or moved) each day...

Not so much just 'in the evening'...but all day long while at work, especially. For example, yesterday I took the stairs 3 times where I normally would have taken the elevator (I work on the 6th floor). And I manage the deficit more from the other end...the eating side. I just like the feeling of control I have from hard numbers it provides. I am really looking forward to analyzing things after I've been wearing it for a month or so. I'm in a major plateau right now, so I'm hoping this will be helpful. Making a few changes to my exercise, too.

Bottom line: I love my band(s)....both of em!! :(

I have been reading how well everyone is doing with their bodybugg and wanted one too... So its on its way... yeahhh. Hopefully my numbers will look just as good!!!! :clap2::clap2:

Did bodybugg come out with a slimmer version yet? Most of my shirts are still tight on my upper arms. A body bugg would never fit under the shirt.

I've been peeking in and letting you know that the BodyBug is still on sale on 24hourfitness for $279.20 and then with the BLC24 you still get the $50 off for $229.20. I just played around with it and that's what it's coming up with for a price. The Digital display is on sale for $79.96 too the code didn't work for that one but, at least it's still $19.99 off. Not too bad....I have it on my internet...contemplating buying it hmmmmmmmm
