Just wondering.. I'm considering it.. I've wasted almost a whole year of payments to the gym which I don't attend.. it's SO unmotivating there. Wondering about the bodybugg and the monitor(watch) that goes with it.
Any thoughts?

Never heard of it, but it looks like fun!
 
Not sure of the cost of this, but my Polar watch/heart monitor is very similar to this. It definately gets me motiviated to get to the gym when I see how many darn calories I've burnt during a workout.
 
My freind has this and she lost I don't know how many lbs using it! She's never looked so good since I first met her! And she said she cannot lose anymore weight. So it definitely worked for her! Good luck if you get it!
 
?/bodybugg/Hi there! I completely understand your frustration with wasted gym payments and lack of motivation. I can definitely relate to that feeling. As a Pampered Chef consultant, I have had the opportunity to try out the bodybugg and the accompanying monitor/watch and I have to say, I am really impressed with it. It's a great way to track your activity levels and monitor your progress towards your fitness goals. Plus, it's a much more affordable option compared to a gym membership. I highly recommend giving it a try. Let me know if you have any specific questions about it. Happy to help!
