First Claim
1. A method of managing a health and fitness of an individual using a weight management system, the method comprising steps of:
- obtaining data to determine an individual'"'"'s health index number, wherein the heath index number is calculated using at least one physiological measurement of the individual, while not being directly understood as the at least one physiological measurement of the individual;
calculating the individual'"'"'s health index number; and
utilizing the individual'"'"'s health index number to determine a trend of an individual'"'"'s health and fitness,utilizing the trend of the individual'"'"'s health and fitness to determine and provide guidance to the individual to continue to improve the individual'"'"'s health and fitness.

Abstract
A health and fitness management system that employs an algorithm to determine suggested recommended actions for a user to improve their health and fitness. The system obtains a user'"'"'s weight from a scale. The user is never informed of their weight. Other data can be collected and included when calculating a health index number. Base line data, such as age, ideal age, initial weight, current weight, ideal weight, etc. can be considered in the algorithm. Examples include the user'"'"'s environment, sleep habits, exercise routines, medical records, and the like. The health index number is used to determine recommended actions, which can include changes to environments, routines, activities, etc. Data collection, the algorithm, and other features of the system can be provided by an Application operating on a portable computing device. Features of the portable computing device can be employed to automatically acquire data for the algorithm.
