Bodybugg Instructions
If you have watched the television show "The Biggest Loser," you have probably seen the Bodybugg. The show's contestants wear the device as they strive to meet their weight-loss goals. Even if you're not on television, you can wear a Bodybugg to help you achieve your desired weight. The Bodybugg can keep track of how many calories you burn each day. To actually lose weight, though, you need to do more than just wear this fitness mechanism; you need to follow the Bodybugg program.
