The bodybugg was on sale yesterday at 24hourfitness for $199 but, it was supposedly a leap-year special. you might want to check it out, quite often the sale price shows up in the shopping cart after you checked it.

I received my BioTrainer yesterday. It looks pretty cool, only $50.00. I will try it for the first time today. I will let you know about that one. Go to BioTrainer Weight Loss System - measure physical activity and caloric burn to check it out.

Does anyone here know the difference in the BodyBugg and the BioTrainer? (Not ActiTrainer) I just received my BioTrainer and am now wondering about the BodyBugg.

I have the BodyBugg but don't use it anymore. I thought it would help motivate me to exercise more and eat less so that I could meet the goals that I'd set in the program, but it just didn't work for me.

After about a month of continuous use I knew how many calories I burn for each type of exercise I do. Since I consistently do the same things I know that on the days that I don't exercise I burn 1800 calories. On the days that I spin and walk the dogs I burn about 2400.

For me the reason that it didn't work is that I HATE to write down the foods that I eat. I did that for years before I had surgery......having said all that I hit a plateau and went back to WeightWatchers. For some reason I enjoy the calculations involved in calculating the FlexPoints.

I lost 5 pounds in my first week with WW so the plateau is over...yea!

Is the only way to wear the body bugg on your arm? I think it would be too obvious if you wanted to wear it all day. Aren't you supposed to wear it everyday...all day?

      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!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
