Lots of hardware devices and some software integrations, but need to think outside the box.

www.dietbet.com/ - Gamification of working out is a great idea/starting point, but what about taking it further. Choosing what you eat can be more important than working out.

A food/photo sharing/tracking software of pictures of everything you eat and possibly automated/encouragement via mechanicalturk based on does it look healthy would be cool. Also could align with friends/groups who are trying to eat healthy - people could comment and say WTF/Seriously... or better yet, ask wheres the photo or have you not eatten?

Some other directions would be more in line with a chrome plugin that goes off ever 30min for you to do a pushup or something.

Just some thoughts.
