bodybugg

With the rise of obesity in USA BodyBugg helps to keep track of the number of calories one can burn day by day, minute by minute.

Many people lose weight by exercising and running. In other words, one may call this type of weight loss a traditional one or old way. However, a new device called BodyBugg helps to count calories in a new way. BodyBugg is tied to your arm and helps to measure skin temperature, air temperature, motion and perspiration.

The Bodybugg is 100% personalized, including your weight loss goals. The information is uploaded to your computer and with a push of a button on your BodyBugg you can see your progress any time a day. Your Bug is uploaded to your online profile and you can see minute by minute profile weight lossand calorie burning progress.

While I have not seen many people wearing BoddyBugg, it seems really interesting, but expensive.

However, the whole thing with the BodyBugg is a little confusing to me. The device is made by Sensewear www.sensewear.com, promoted as Apex www.apexfitness.com and pushed by 24HourFitness www.24hourfitness.com.

The price of the BodyBugg can be anywhere between $250 and $350 dollars. It depnds on the program one may choose to buy. What makes BodyBugg expensive is the fact that the device and the program are subscription based program. You need to have internet access and your subscription must be current.

Bodybugg Program with Armband & Digital Display is $399.90. Web-Only bodybugg Program, which comes without the armband is $149.95 dollars. It includes an online food logging with custom meal plans, an estimated energy expenditure data based on your lifestyle, a 3-month subscription to the web-based program and 1 phone session with a bodybugg coach.

where is yemen?

yemen is a country in the middle east.

SANAA, Yemen, Sept. 17 -- Attackers exploded a vehicle bomb outside the main gate of the U.S. Embassy in Yemen on Wednesday in what appeared to be a well-coordinated assault that triggered more explosions and heavy gunfire around the compound.

Yemen's official Saba news agency said 16 people died in the incident, including six Yemeni soldiers, four civilians and six attackers. One of the civilians was an Indian woman at the embassy on business.

There were no immediate reports of American casualties. The embassy is located in the center of Sanaa, Yemen's capital, but the building is set far back from an outer security wall.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility.

Yemen is the ancestral home of Osama bin Laden. Al Qaeda has maintained a steady presence here, especially as fighters from the militant group return from Iraq.

The first explosion, at 9:15 a.m., resounded for miles and sent a plume of black smoke over the city.

"It shook everything in my home," said Saddam Hussein, a Yemen man living about 200 yards from the embassy. "One big explosion, then smaller explosions, and gunfire."

The vehicle bomb exploded at the main gate, said embassy spokesman Ryan Gliha. There did not appear to be any major damage to the embassy building, Gliha said.

U.S. officials still were trying to determine the nature of several explosions that followed the vehicle bomb, Gliha said. Hussein and other nearby residents said the secondary blasts sounded much smaller, like grenades.
