Learned so much from this device
When I began looking into this I was skeptical to say the least. I could not understand how this little band would make any difference, however when I hit a plateau and could not loose that those last 10 pounds I decided to give it a chance. I compared this to the more popular Body Bugg and decided to go with this because it has a sleep monitor. After owning this for only a few weeks it had given me all the information I needed to loose those last pounds.First I realized I was only burning 1500-1800 calories a day. All the online calculators said someone my age/gender/weight should be burning 1800-2200. Apparently my metabolism is slower than the averages they use for these calculators. Once I adjusted my caloric intake the last few pounds melted off. Now it has inspired me to try building some muscle to see if I can get my metabolism up any.The second thing I learned was that I was not getting adequate sleep. After reviewing my sleep patterns I...

You burn calories differently than anyone else, which is why cookie-cutter weight loss programs may not be working for you. The BodyMedia FIT weight management system captures 5,000+ readings every minute to capture your individual metabolic profile. This personalized information helps you pinpoint what actions you need to take to reach your weight-loss goals.
Weight loss boils down to three key things:
- Calories Burned - Everything you do during the day and night -- from pumping iron to pumping gas -- burns calories. And the way you burn calories may be different from the next guy.
- Calories Consumed - Knowing what you eat is an important part of losing weight. Too many carbs? Not enough fiber? BodyMedia FIT will give you a detailed nutritional breakdown.
- Quantity and Quality of Sleep - Scientists understand and study the role of sleep in weight loss. Good sleep can help suppress your appetite and maintain your energy, which is important to weight loss.

Great Motivation Tool!
The main reason I bought this was to track how well I was sleeping, second for weight loss assistance. I am a Weight Watchers member, I did not buy this to replace my membership. I bought a package from Bodymedia directly, it contained a separate display device called GoWear. I was hesitant to put out a large amount of money up front, especially with a subscription to the web site. But I have learned so much, I'm glad I bought a one year subscription, it is cheaper on a per month breakdown of the cost. I have not had a problem with software or hardware from this company. Some basic info: The Dashboard gives you a basic review of your progress using a bar graph. There are shaded areas that guide you to the goals the program has set for you based on your personal information. It asks you to report a daily weight reading and reflects losses with this info. The medium size armband that came with it was too snug (I'm a size 18 to 20), I had already bought a large size with the...
