"I've had the Bodybugg for about a month and totally love it. Well... a love hate. It makes weight loss for me very easy because it's all right there in front of you and it works as a great motivator to work a little harder. The website is "ok". That is really the only drawback. Only compatible on PC and ONLY Internet Explorer. What's funny is that it even looks kinda bad using Internet Explorer. You would think the fonts could be more vibrant since it only works on one browser. The fact that it's not mac compliant is a big con. It's so easy to port this stuff over... heck, the entire software is written using an archaic language. It would be quite simple for them to port it over to PHP or something that could work on any browser and platform. Think about how great it would be to be able to upload the food you eat from a PDA or iPhone. With all that... i totally recommend the bodybugg system for anybody that is serious about losing weight. there is a higher end version out there called Sensewear that offers a little nicer armband with an extra bell or whistle."
