I read on a review that the device can be worn inside a bra. Has anyone else tried this and did it work accurately for you? Thank you!

Heidi, there IS a device that works inside a bra, but it is a DIFFERENT BRAND than Body Media's device. This device only works on the upper arm area.

I don't believe that's accurate it goes by arm movement. You can try and compare results.

I put mine inside my bra - it works. I have also done 'like for like' workouts with it attached to my ankle and forearm - the results have all been the same as if I wore it on my arm. I wish BodyMedia weren't so egotistical and would come up with better wearability options.

As far as I know, this is false. The Core device along with the other BodyMedia gadgets must be worn on the upper arm with the sensors making direct contact with the skin in the mid-triceps area. This is how the device has been calibrated by the factory to calculate your calorie expenditure throughout the day. It will not work connected to any other part of the body.

I actually have mine on a stainless steel chain around my neck. It usually rests in my bra, but still works just the same when it is out on my shirt. I love it. Seems accurate & keeps me motivated.

By bra slot if you mean inserting them where a pad would go (meaning in between two pieces of material), I'm thinking they probably would not stay in place. They are meant to be placed directly on your skin, and like another reviewer stated, you kind of have to peel them off when you are done. Without applying them to your skin I'm not sure how they would stay in place.

I tuck it in my sports bra and it is as accurate as when I use the belt clip that comes with it. Unlike the Fitbit that works with wrist action, the Omro works when my wrists are stationary inn the elliptical.

This bra isnt made for larger breast women. It fit me without the wine in it, but as soon as I tried to fill it it bulged out sides and made my boobs look deformed. I think it would only work well for smaller chested women and I wouldnt fill to the max as it makes them look obvious that youre wearing something underneath the shirt. I wanted to wear it to a concert and it was a major fail, but very hilarious lol! I might wear this to my own party as a joke, thats about it! :)

Well, I am a 32-B in bra size and I'm a fairly small person with a thin skeletal frame. I ordered an Extra Small and, at first, thought it was just too small because it really pressed against my breasts. So then I ordered a Small and realized it was too big to do the therapeutic work I needed. I wasn't wearing this as just a sports bra, I was having real pain in my upper shoulders and across my chest when at the keyboard. I wear this bra to help with that and it really, really has helped (I've been at the keyboard for hours today and am not wearing it; I now only wear it occasionally). But it had to be tight to do the job. The company is really good about returns; I had no trouble returning the Small and getting a second Xtra Small. Hope this helps!

I guess you can wear it around your neck or put it in you bra if that's your choice, but I would not do neither, I just put mine in my pocket or my pocketbook, I've had times when I put it on my waistband on my pants, and it popped off, the next thing I knew it was on the ground. So you half to make up your own mind when it comes to how you will wear it, so be full warned, it will pop off especially if you're fat around the waist like I am. Hope this helps

it is suggested that you clip it to your bra strap or panties. backwards. hope that helps.

As a man I have no issues with the chest strap, I always know it there but it's not a all uncomfortable. I would think women being used to a bra would forget they are wearing the chest strap.

Send pictures so I can give a better qualified opinion. Just kidding that was terrible. I suggest something else. There is a holster that clips to your bra where the cups come together. You tube has some videos on them.

That's not the intended use for the device, and I'd imagine it'd be rather uncomfortable, sitting on it all day. It's basically a silicone funnel that helps you direct your urine. I have used it fishing, but I did not keep it in my panties. Hope this helps.

You could, but probably shouldn't...I've been wearing it almost all day every day first week I bought it. Even at night sometimes. It was quiet interesting experiment to see how different activities affect heart rate (my heart rate drops below 60 when working with computers and steady 65 at night)By the 8th day I've noticed redness on my skin where the rubber contacts were touching and then it started itching. It makes sense: the skins doesn't breath there and strap traps salt from sweat.So now I cut down on wearing it only when I work out.

As per our Technical Department, you can slip this under a bra strap. But the other answers are correct, there is no velcro or straps to hold this item in place

I have not, but I think you may be disappointed with your results. My experiences continues to be that this devices is most accurate and reliable when your forearm is held in a position that keeps it parallel to the ground as when you are running or fast walking. When the forearm is held in another position its performance is highly suspect. I was sent a firmware upgrade in May of this year that helped a little but it still isn't ready for prime time in my opinion.

My experience has been varied. If I don;t have the device correctly placed, I will experience discomfort (pain) within an hour. If it is correctly placed, I can get several hours of wear. I have yet to precisely identify what is correct placement. Apparently, the tolerance envelope is very narrow. I make no attempt to use the device while sleeping, thinking that the body needs some downtime relief. My incontenance problem is minimal while sleeping

I find that positioning is critical to wearing time. I have at times been able to wear 5-6 hours and removing only when a need to urinate, and immediately remount. If not positioned correctly I may get only an hour or so before pain requires a remount. I've not been able to identify the precise position need to avoid pain. I dont use the device at night partially as a means to avoid bruising.
