In my ultimate battle against overweight, I've done and brought quite a few stuffs that could help me in my quest but nothing seemed working, like the Nokia Wellness Diary for instance, something was missing to help me remain motivated along the way.
Then I came across the
Nike+ FuelBand that could track activity as
NikeFuel, a universal metric based on oxygen kinetics mapped to activities and
associated movements, enabling users to compare, compete and collaborate
across activities, regardless of gender and body type. Now how is this related to the aforementioned Nokia app, the FuelBand is capable of syncing information effortlessly to a rich
mobile or Web-based experience, a seamless integration where Nokia Wellness Diary failed to realized since it only reached up to the mobilephone platform. The Nike+ FuelBand merges the digital and
physical worlds to motivate and inspire users to make every day count.

Whether walking, dancing
or playing catch, a person can earn NikeFuel as they moved and
tracks calorie and step count, something that could not be awkwardly done with a mobilephone. You wouldn't want you to carry your phone while doing all these stuffs right? The fuel band will provide
continuous motivational feedback on users’ progress; design for all-day comfort
and aesthetics; make it user friendly, intuitive and fun; and create the
ultimate motivator for everyday athletes to do more.
Users
start by setting a target for how active they’d like to be each day. A built-in
three-axis accelerometer measures their physical activities, and a single
button interface shows them how much NikeFuel they've earned and how close they
are to their daily goals. Fitness becomes a game as users track their progress
from red to green throughout the day. When they reach their goals, the band
celebrates with them. The FuelBand effortlessly syncs to the mobile app through
Bluetooth or to the Nike+ website through the built-in USB. Through the online
community users can tap into a chain of inspiration. They can compete with
themselves or share results with friends to compare, compete and celebrate; see
personal activity graphs for the day, week, month and year; unlock achievements
and celebrations as they reach new milestones; and share their successes or
challenge friends via Facebook and Twitter.
Well, how about make one of this wristband Nokia since you already got a mobile application with the same set up. Mobilephones were to bulky to carry when your working out right? Just saying.
