Exemplary embodiments may provide an adhesive pad that is designed to be used with an on-body medical device. The adhesive pad may partially or fully surround a perimeter of the on-body medical device. The adhesive pad may be the primary mechanism or may provide an additional mechanism for helping to secure the on-body medical device to the user. In addition, the adhesive pad may include a metallic coil, such as a metal loop, that is woven into the adhesive pad or otherwise inserted into or secured to the adhesive pad. The metallic coil may play multiple roles. First, the metallic coil may act as an antenna to facilitate wireless communications with the on-body medical device, such as NFC communications. In addition, the metallic coil may serve as a power source for electric components positioned on the adhesive pad.

Disclosed are examples of a device, a system, methods and computer-readable medium products operable to implement functionality to determine and respond to a purpose of a meal. An algorithm or application may receive data that may include data related to a meal purpose from data sources and determine whether any of the data received from the plurality of data sources was received from a direct data source or an indirect data source. The data may be evaluated to determine a purpose of the meal. Based on the results of the evaluation, instructions may be generated to provide an appropriate response based on the determined purpose of the meal. The generated instructions to provide the appropriate response based on the determined purpose of the meal may be output.
