BodyBugg Review; Frequently Asked Questions

Since IChooseThin.com has undertaken the task of creating the most comprehensive BodyBugg review in the world today, we only thought it to be fitting that we provide a list of questions and answers that pertain to The BodyBugg and how well it works.   Here is just a short list of popular questions and answers.

Do I need a computer to use BodyBugg?
A computer is needed to use BodyBugg, no exceptions.

Do I need to pay a monthly fee to use BodyBugg?
Yes, the only way to be able to use The BodyBugg is to log onto BodyBugg.com and upload the date from your BodyBugg unit.  That information is combined with the foods the user enters into the program.  All of the data then provides the user with alot of information that is an aid in weight loss.  The first six months of access is calculated into the purchase price.

Is BodyBugg accurate?
There are many websites that tout that it is 80% or even 90% effective, and it is great they are confident enough to be able to rehearse those figures to the world.  We are a bit more reserved and also give BodyBugg very high kudos for the accuracy that is provided, but we shy away from percentages.  This is not because we doubt, it is because we must remember it is only a tool that helps us make better decisions.  Just last week my unit forecast I should lose 6 pounds, based upon my calorie burn for the week.  I lost 6.2 pounds, so yes, for me BodyBugg was, and is very accurate, but we still will refrain from spouting off a percentage.  We know it is accurate because our office staff has been using them and for everyone they have proven to be good indicators of calorie burn and weight loss.  To date, it is the most accurate tool that is available to the general public.

Does The BodyBugg use the heart rate to calculate calorie burn?
No, The BodyBugg does NOT use heart rate as factor in calorie burn.  This is partly because heart rate is not the best thing to factor into the computations.  An example that would skew the results would be if someone were on medication.  NO, heart rate is not used to calculate calorie burn when using The BodyBugg.
