A gadget that counts calories for you

GoBe, a wearable device, counts what you eat, as well as what you burn. While you can manually record your intake with Apple Watch, FitBit, or Jawbone devices, GoBe takes a different approach: it biometrically tracks your glucose levels, translating specific types of spikes into food groups (like sugars or carbohydrates), and uses the data to calculate exactly how many calories you’ve consumed in each sitting. It’s all about accuracy. There’s just one caveat: the design, which looks bulky, with a roughly one-inch-wide, oval-shaped display that dwarfs small wrists. But if you get pass that, the device will start shipping in June and promises to help you keep a check on those extra holiday calories.!
