Once I got the bodybugg armband adjusted right so it didn't hurt my arm or cut off circulation, it was acutally so comfortable that I forgot it was there! Now, today I did NOT do any additional exercise (except walk to work, but I've been doing that for a while) because I thought it would be cool to see how many calories I burn just being me. Unfortunately just being me today consisted of being chained to my desk working on resident correspondence and such, so I've been thinking all day that my calorie burn is going to be depressingly low.
Well, not so!! :-) I burned over 2500 calories today just being me. I can't wait till next week when I start my new (again) exercise schedule and really watch those calories climb up!!
So, for my review of the bodybuggsp:
While I'm happy with the way it works when you upload the info via USB at your computer, the main reason I wanted the bodybuggsp was because you can link/sync it to your iphone, iPod or droid and get pretty much real-time calorie burn info. Not so. It worked for all of 13 minutes synced with my iPhone. Then, I'd try to link the bluetooth with my iPhone, sync with the bodybugg program and it would go off.
I'm hoping beyond hope that now that I've done the initial upload via USB that somehow, magically, the uploads via bluetooth to my iPhone will now work. I have a feeling from all the negative app reviews though, that it won't be doing that.
I'll let you all know how it's doing within the next week.
Now, for some kind of good news....I don't know exactly how much weight I've lost, but it's somewhere around the 20-25 lb mark. I've gone down a pants size!!
Hope y'all have a GREAT weekend!!
