I'm a bit of a gadget dork, and I tend to get motivation through my fitness tools/toys/tech. Would love to see what my fellow geeks might be using to motivate/monitor.

I'll start...

BodyMedia FIT
DEXA Scan
BodyGem
Garmin Forerunner with HRM
MyFitnessPal App
FitDeck App
Earndit.com
BodyFat Scale
weightology.net Blog - not really a gadget/app, but science-based weight loss info motivates me much like my tech

Regards,
sethkm

    My 1st app I downloaded to my Android was Cardio Trainer. I've compared it with my Polar HRM for calories burned and it's somewhat close in accuracy. I mostly use it to compare and track my milage and pace when I go out jogging.

    I have joined that group also, but have logged yet. I've not gotten very far though.

    My Fitness Pal (app)
    WW Kichen app
    WW Mobile app (when I am doing WW)

    I also have the C25K and Nike+GPS apps, but have never used them.

    I would like to walk to Mordor! Where does one find that?
