I usually estimate my calories burned, but I'm really curious if the body bugg works. Has anybody used it? If so, what do you think about it?

    YES, IT WORKS. As long as you are honest with yourself about the calories you're consuming, it's an amazing gadget. The downside is that it is kind of thick black band that you have to wear on your arm, so sometimes I am faced with trying to cover it up or else get some questions and stares. I can't imagine not using it at this point, though. I love it.

    I have the Body Media Fit, which is virtually the same thing and it is working for me. I have consistantly lost 1-2 pounds per week on average since I got it.

    I have the same as Steph.. if you like #'s you will love it, but you do have to be honest about your consumption. It definitely makes me really how much I sit on my butt at work all day and then have to work out double hard to make up for it.

    Thanks for the input, Ladies! I am kind of skeptical and reserved about forking over money for it, but I do love numbers. I am very consistent about tracking everything I eat, but I would like just as much accuracy about what's being burned... at least a closer estimate! @steph - do you think the weight loss was supported by the media fit because you were better at tracking your consumption or because you could plan more appropriately with the information about your calorie deficit?
