System for monitoring and managing body weight and other physiological conditions including iterative and personalized planning, intervention and reporting capability
DC CAFCFirst Claim
1. A system to provide feedback for an individual'"'"'s weight-loss goal, said system comprising:
- a. a wearable sensor device for detecting data; and
b. a processing unit in electronic communication with said sensor device, said processing unit configured to accomplish the following steps, thus providing said feedback;
(i) derive physiological and contextual data of the individual from data detected by said sensor device;
(ii) prompt said individual to establish a weight-loss goal;
(iii) generate a first suggestion to engage in an activity to assist said individual to achieve said weight-loss goal;
(iv) determine weight-loss;
(v) generate a second suggestion to engage in an activity to assist said individual to achieve said weight-loss goal if said weight-loss goal is not progressing toward the goal;
wherein said second suggestion is based upon a determination of whether or not the individual complied with said first suggestion; and
wherein said determination of whether or not the individual complied with said first suggestion is based on said derived physiological and contextual data of the individual.

Abstract
A nutrition and activity management system is disclosed that monitors energy expenditure of an individual through the use of a body-mounted sensing apparatus. The apparatus is particularly adapted for continuous wear. The system is also adaptable or applicable to measuring a number of other physiological parameters and reporting the same and derivations of such parameters. A weight management embodiment is directed to achieving an optimum or preselected energy balance between calories consumed and energy expended by the user. An adaptable computerized nutritional tracking system is utilized to obtain data regarding food consumed, Relevant and predictive feedback is provided to the user regarding the mutual effect of the user'"'"'s energy expenditure, food consumption and other measured or derived or manually input physiological contextual parameters upon progress toward said goal.
