Hello everyone, I'm Jared! 👋 Today, I'm excited to introduce MealByMeal, the easiest way to track your calories and macros! 🔎 The problem After using apps like MyFitnessPal off and on over the years (and losing and regaining 40+ pounds in the process), I grew to hate logging food. I would regularly change what I ate just to have foods that were easy to log. I would dislike going out to eat and needing to figure out how to represent what I ate. Because it's so miserable to track, I would stop using these apps once I reached some goal. Soon after, I would regain the weight and start the cycle over again. I made MealByMeal to break the cycle and make tracking easiest enough that it's sustainable long-term. 💡 The solution It's super simple to use: 1. Set your weight, calorie, and macro goals on our website (we have a wizard that guides you through the process). 2. Text us what you eat and what you weigh. Use normal language, but remember that the more information you provide, the more accurate we can be. If you text "pasta", we'll give you an estimate. If you text "20g of penne", we'll give a better estimate, and if you text "20g of barilla penne" we'll give you a perfect value based on a lookup in a nutrition database. We also support approximate sizing if you aren't sure, but serving sizes, weights, and volumes will always be the most accurate. Remember: you can use Siri/Google to text with your voice too! We respond to each of your texts with a summary of how you're doing for the day so you usually won't need to even visit the website except to track progress. 3. That's it! With MealByMeal, you're a few seconds away from stress-free food logging after each meal. Start your journey towards a health today!

💡 Bright idea

Congratulations on this great product! This app sounds like a game changer to me. 🚀 Tracking calories and macros was always a challenge for me with other apps like MyFitnessPal because it was very time consuming. I'm curious if there is a way to plan meals in advance. For example, if I want to eat "xyz" tomorrow, is there a feature that allows me to figure out how much I can eat to hit my calorie and macro goals? It would also be interesting if the AI could give me tips on, for example, tips on protein-rich products, assisting me in fulfilling my protein requirements. 🤔 Are there any plans to support phone numbers outside the US?

@melina_wonn I definitely want to add better support for this. It's possible to select a future date on the website and log foods for the future, but it isn't available over text yet. Suggesting options to fill out your goals is a great idea! And as for phone numbers, it's unlikely it would be cost effective to offer it over phone outside of the US, but I'll likely add FB Messenger, WhatsApp, Telegram, or similar.

@jrhizor Thank you for your answer. I'm glad you like my idea. And Something like WhatsApp would be a great idea. :)

💡 Bright idea

this is awesome! I tried the demo on the website (no US number), and it worked really well. some feedback based on the app version: I think it would be great to see how input is interpreted. e.g. if I enter "a pbj", I'd like to see how much bread, peanut butter, and jam each were used to calculate the macros/calories. I'd also like to be able to manually adjust those inputs and/or the outputs. great idea and implementation!

@michihuber Thanks! Within the web app it's possible to edit the calories/macros. Breakdowns for the estimates are definitely something I want to add, and I'll need to support WhatsApp / FB Messenger in the future for international users in a future launch!

I often had one big issue while tracking macros: I have to weigh each and every ingedrient I'm cooking with. I tried several trackers during the last couple of years, but it just isn't feasible to always be in control - you described it pretty accurately. This is now solved! - or could be at least...unfortunately you're only available in the US. Can't wait for you to be available in EU 🚀

This genuinely sounds like a great idea, especially for someone who struggles in maintaining a balanced and predictable diet. The integration via text is also a brilliant idea, will definitely try it.

Super innovative in how minimalistic it is! Super streamlined w/o an app and just relying on texting alone. This solves the problem of friction in macro tracking which was my #1 problem. I'm going to try this out, this is like quick capture for the macro-tracking world lmao. We recently launched a product also focused on quick capture, but in the note-taking space. Excited to try and give feedback! It wasn't immediately obvious to me because I just wasn't used to texting for macro tracking, but this is so innovative. edit: I also second that breakdowns for the food item components that led to the calculation would be helpful. eg if i mention two items and get one calculation, i want a confirmation of the items that its using to calculate.

This is super awesome. I'm bigger than I've ever been and I have a lot of self doubt... this might be a perfect addition to what I need to keep me motivated.
