This thing is AAAAmazing!
I wore it to work again today which pretty much = NO calorie burning since I sit at a desk all day. I want it to be completely accurate though so I’m wearing it everywhere…..for now! I really don’t even notice I’m wearing it till I get the occasional strange look or a coworker questioning why I have it on. I feel like I should make up some really cool story about why it is that I’m wearing this strange contraption around my arm–they’d probably find it way more interesting than the truth! 🙂
Look at this beauty! Twas a very delicious Green Smoothie that I made today!
- Almond Milk
- Water
- Oats
- TONS of Spinach
- Frozen Banana
- Flaxseed
I was worried that the water might water it down too much but it didn’t at all and came out really good–I was excited that it actually filled up the whole cup!
Today’s workout was a TOTAL success! Wearing the Body Bugg is making me so much more aware of I’m doing and eating–it pretty much pumped me up for my trip to the gym! There I did:
- 15 min. on a Crazy Incline
- 6-7 min. running
- 10 min. Eliptical on Full Resistance
On the Cable Machine (I think that’s what it’s called) I did:
- 3×10 Bicep Curls
- 3×10 Triceps
- 3×10 Shoulders
Free Weights with 8 LBS I did:
- 15 Deadlifts w/ Hammer Curl
- 15 Tricep Kickbacks
- 20 Lunges w/ Bicep Curl (each side)
I was on a MISSION–to see how this thing really worked! However, when I got home I plugged the Bugg in and still had more calories to burn, so I decided to do some of my favorite excercises OnDemand in my living room of course!
- 10 min. Bootylicious Buns HAHA
- 14 min. Abs
It kind of sounds like a lot but the scary part is (if it’s completely accurate) that I still had some calories to burn and some more calories to eat! I mean I do sit for 9 hours out of the day at work, so during that time I’m getting no physical activity and it’s tough at times to fit everything in. That’s why I think this will help me for sure!
It’ll also show me how to properly fuel by body for the amount of exercise I do end up getting throughout the day. I’m SOOO glad I have the appointment w/my Coach next week. I’ll update more when she tells me what I’m doing wrong! LOL
DON’T FORGET
So COOL!! I want a Garmin so badly. I would totally wear it everywhere…even in the shower, ha! Just Kidding! But probably to bed 🙂
dude it is totally the most accurate wearing constantly, i wore it constantly for a year straight, so i recommend!
glad you like 🙂

does it take into account your BMR?
I really want a bugg – such a cool gadget! I think I have enough to keep me busy right now though! 🙂
Great workout! That bugg looks so cool! 🙂 Loving the GM
I’m so jealous of your Garmin! I would love one. Your workout looks great – glad you are enjoying your new toy! 🙂
I am happy you are enjoying =). I love exercise gadgets lol
I think the bugg is just what I need to kick my butt into gear–what great motivation!
Thank you so much for your lovely comment on my blog! I’m so glad you brought me, in turn, to your beautiful blog! Your fitness journey is so wonderful and inspiring! (such an awesome tool, too… 🙂
I love your idea of adding oats to your green smoothie! I will definitely try your green smoothie recipe next time I whip up a green smoothie! Thank you for the great suggestion!
I’ll echo my friend Astra Libris … thanks so much for dropping by my blog so that we could be introduced! I, too, am inspired by your journey and offer you hearty congratulations!!!
I’m a bit scared of the body bug … not sure I really want to know the numbers! LOL
Oooh, that sounds so cool! I want one…
I haven’t tried oats in my green monster before, but yours looks yummy. I think the Magic Bullet should hold about twice the amount of ingredients in it since I seem to want to add way too much of everything!
