Holy cow, I would have loved to have been in the audience that day. I would love to have a bodybugg, but they're so dang expensive (around $400).

p.s. Jillian rocks!

You can do the same with a good heart rate monitor as you do with a body bugg.

@celticangel73 You can get a brand new one on Ebay for about $170

a lot of times it can be easy to cut out soda after you quit when you finally drink some it tastes nasty i hate sugar soda in the first place it makes my teeth and mouth feel gross and sugar free soda can be just as bad cause of the carbohydrates and sodium but lost 20lbs just by cutting out soda alone and changing my life style was able to lose 70 pounds in a year and a half and many other people can do it too eat right,excercise,and pray it helps a bunch :)

Could this help with weight gain?

@Stormyphate True, true. I'm seriously just trying to recall what she said word for word about it but I cannot. I'm not entirely sure I had the right vitamin anyway, and yes I do know that D is also absorbed from sunlight...which is another reason nearly everyone is deficient...we're terrified of skin cancer. But I do 100% remember her talking about a bit of new info about some vitamin or hormone that affects most cells. Sadly she's only human, and does mis speak from time to time, *shrugs*

@ginny7676 Epigenetics is a huge new field but they haven't actually really proven anything to the point where it can be considered to be more then a hypothesis. I think the weight issues have to do more with people's bacterial flora. And 40%? That seems a bit drastic. You don't just get vitamin D through food, it can also be produced through sun exposure. Anyway, I was more referring to my problem with her saying the "expression of genetics" - its "the expression of genes!"

@dukenthaylor Actually when you know almost exactly how many calories you burn while working out it can have a lot of advantages...but I can see where you're coming from as well.

[ginny7676]

@Stormyphate Oh it absolutely does. So much science has come out in the last ten years...you can actually have an impact on your genetics by what you eat...I can't remember if it's Vitamin B or D..I believe it's D...but whichever one it was, affects something like 40% of your genes....We're talking billions of cells.

[Stormyphate]

"You can effect the expression of your genetics?"

That doesn't even make sense

For this device to be really effective, IMO, I start my "day" from the time I wear it at night, and the take it off for a few minutes when I take my shower, put it back on after the shower, and then when I'm at work, I plug the device into the USB port of my computer, upload the data (and charges the battery), then put it back on my arm about 20 minutes later. The accountability factor is that I feel motivated to keep wearing this device to keep track of my calories burned and the steps taken..
