Linking MFP to BodyMedia

Ok, I just synced both accounts. But, what I was hoping for is to be able to bring over the foods I enter here on MFP to BM; is that possible? Because there are hardly any foods entered in the database for BM.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

    Mine just brings over the calories and micronutriants. It justs lists it as "Myfitnesspal".

    I can't seem to post a pic for you, sorry. I can't edit the food over in BM, btw.

    So, when I enter my food in MFP, then what happens to it in BM? Do I have to re-enter it?
  • You use Bm to log exercise and MFP to log food.

    Did you figure this out yet? You can just try to enter a few foods in MFP and in a few minutes you will see calories in the Calories Consumed area in the Activity Manager on BodyMedia's site. When you open the calories consumed area you will see the breakdown of calories by meal and by calorie type (ie: carb, fat, protein... etc.)

    It works pretty cool.
