BodyMedia Question

Options
Hello all,

I just slapped on my BodyMedia today for the first time and its very addictive to run those reports. As a teacher I have high blood pressure and am currently on medication to control but I still have stressful moments. Do you think the high blood pressure might affect the BodyMedia data, like skew it in any way?

    hmm.... probably not. It measures your body temperature and sweating among other things- I don't think high BP does any of that to you, right?

    No I don't think so. I just had that horrible thought as I was looking at the niffty charts. The information is somewhat surprising it boggled me that I burned 2114 calories today without me popping in my Cathe DVD, but then I have to factor in the fact I went on a bowling fieldtrip today and when I teach I never sit during the day.

    Thank you

    i know- it's pretty eye opening isn't it? I've had the BMF for three months now and WOULD NEVER GO BACK!!! it's amazing how it's taught me how much I should be eating.
