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

How much does the web subscription cost? I saw 99 bucks a year on one of the pages, is that it? I know I get a 3 month free ride with the purchase from 24 hour fitness, I'm just wondering how much the web support is.

after my 3 months free was up I did reocurring payments of 14.99 a monthI don't think I will need it a whole year, after I reach goal I think I can maintain my weight without the bugg (I hope):confused2:

Hi All, I got my body bugg today!!!!! Anywho, when I check that I've had bariatric surgery, it wont let me continue. Did you all check that one or did you pass through and start filling out your questinaires?

I wear mines all day and take it off while sleeping I work at a bank its usually cold in the building so I keep a sweater on but I don't care who know I have it on, I wore the weight for year people look so I don't care about them looking anymore :tongue_smilie:

Ok, the bodybugg website is down, so since I'm supposed to wear it for 48 hours, what should I do about inputting information?

I ordered mine from 24 hour fitness, its supposed to be here Thursday, I can't wait!! Will it make it through a metal detector? I have to go through one to come into work. Does it hurt it to get xrayed?

I am VERY interested in getting a bodybugg. Just have a few questions.....

1. Where is the best (cheapest but good qualtiy) place to get one?

2. How important is the digital wristband??

3. Do you have to purchase the subscription to use the bodybugg, or is it just extra support?

4. Is there a lot of daily information to input?

Thank you sooooo much. I hope to be a bodybugger real soon.

I personally like the wristband. I carry it with me, especially at the gym. I do not leave the gym until it says I have burned at least 750 calories during a workout. This just helps me surpass my cal burn every day. I also like it because I can glance at it and think...wow...I need to move! I need to walk the dog or clean the glass doors, or do SOMETHING to get a burn going! So, I love it for that. I wear mine 24/7. You don't have to, but why not? That's why I got it! I have had people ask what it is and I just tell them...like you see on Biggest Loser. Most people are SO interested and want one!!! I think the best deal is on 24 Hour Fitness. I don't think buying a used on on ebay is a good deal because you DO want the online subscription. You get it 3 mos with a purchase and get 2 coaching sessions, which I found helpful. At the end of 3 mos I renewed my online subscription. It lets you set your goals, log your food, etc.,and so it's more than support. It actually allows you to USE the Bugg in the ways that DO help you lose. You will LOVE your bugg!!! I'm SO glad I got mine. It really got me losing again!!!

I wore mine through airport security so I think that's same as metal detector/xray??
