The people over at muve.me sent me a GRUVE! I am so excited about this gadget! Let me tell you about it first though.
At Muve, Inc. they are driven by a single purpose: to reverse the global obesity epidemic. That's why we're dedicated to providing healthy and sustainable weight loss solutions that are scientifically tested and validated.The past 20 years have witnessed significant changes in lifestyle: Americans are moving and exercising less while maintaining at least the same caloric intake. Sedentary activities such as desk jobs, watching television and long hours sitting in traffic are some of the environmental changes that have combined to discourage physical activity and increase weight gain. They offer innovative weight management solutions that work. Their solutions have been tested and proven in the lab and in the real world. They are leading a muvement that brings hope and the promise of a healthier, happier world.
When I found this company and this product I just knew that I had to try it out for myself. This is so great because finally I will get a real idea of how many calories I really burn in a day. Sometimes I think that I over estimate. I sit at work most of the day and while my workouts are intense I am just not sure if I am really getting enough movement. Sorry. Muvement ;)

Wow, isnt this thing cool! No...this is not my tummy...HA!
I am going to be posting my results and what I find as I go. I have been playing around with this gadget though for a week now and it is sooooo cool! I love it! Joel, thanks so very much for sending me this! I give it two thumbs up. If you are looking for something that is more sophisticated than a heart rate monitor then this is the product for you.
PLEASE go to www.muve.me to see for yourself what all the fuss is about!
