Body Media Fit and Myfitnesspal

I ordered the body media fit yesterday after reading tons of reviews and looking through several websites. Costco had it on sale for $119 with a 12 month subscription to the site for logging included. My question is, if you use one - how well does it work with myfitnesspal? I really don't want to log my food into two places if I don't have to.

I had a bodybugg a few years back and it really motivated me to keep my calorie burn up all day long - I am a numbers kind of person. So I am hoping this will do the same for me.

    BodyMedia intagrates really well with MFP. I only enter my food in MFP and BodyMedia picks the calorie consumed number up and nets it against you calories burned. Additionally, MFP syncs your calories burned from Body media and adjusts you calorie budget for the day.

    I ordered from Costco too, and mine will be here Thursday. SQUEE! From what I've seen, it syncs up well with mfp. One of my friends uses it, and it just gives her a "calorie adjustment" every day.

    That is exactly what I wanted to hear! Perfect!

    I can't wait to use it. I hope setting it up isn't too technical, its not my strong point. Supposedly it will sync with my iphone 4s as well.....

    I hear setup is pretty easy and straight forward. I guess we'll see. Just ordered mine from costco today, now to play the waiting game!

    Have a look at the blue help link at the top of this page. There is a whole section on linking BMF.
  • Body Media FIT LINK is the accurate device in the market for measuring calorie burn. The Body Media FIT automatically and accurately gives you round the clock info on calories burned, steps taken, activity levels, and sleep quality.
  • I am currently using the Body Media Fit Link. It works flawlessly with MFP!! I love that I only have to log in food once! I was a BodyBugg user for about a year, but switched bc of mfp. (I know , I know, crazy but I hated having to log food 2x and the BodyBugg food log was HORRIBLE!!!) So glad I made the switch!
