Sprint is offering a new way to use your camera phone – its MyFoodPhone service will let users take photos of their breakfast, lunch or dinner (or all three!) and send the photos off to a nutritional advisor. Customers then receive video feedback on their eating habits from the advisor on a biweekly basis (for $9.99 a month).
The service aims to help customers monitor what they eat, modify eating habits and achieve individual health goals "through motivation provided by personalized counseling from trained, credible MyFoodPhone Nutrition Advisors," Sprint says.
The Visual Food Journal lets customers send Picture Maili photos to a Web page and log data, including their weight, exercise and calories burned to track progress on the phone.
No word yet on what reaction the video counselor would give me if I send them a photo of my Wendy's Triple [1] and Biggie Fries.
