How To Reach Your Fitness Goals Wirelessly
I recently come across BodyTrace, a nice way to combine a bathroom scale that wirelessly uploads and displays your weight and BMI and a website where you can track all the changes with visualized solutions. An excerpt from the description:
We are using the GSM network to transmit your weight to our website. We use these measurements to create weight and BMI charts and by combining this information with additional data that we collect (from food tracker, for example) we can better evaluate your progress and give you feedback on how to reach your goals.
They also have a collaboration with DailyBurn. You can read the whole story from the first idea on the blog.
See more examples of how Web 2.0 or social media can be used in fitness here.

BodyTrace looks like a great resource for patients to get started on becoming healthier and tracking their weight loss in an effective way.
