Which apps do you recommend for counting the calories you eat?

Watch out, we have fucking nerd over here

>>76678551
>counting your calories
You’re either a woman or a flaming homo
>>
>>76678551
I just keep it in my head, log the total in a spreadsheet. For the most part i eat 80-90% the same thing every day so its about understanding the variance
>>
>>76678617
and you're either naturally genetically gifted lean year round and have been for life and thus cannot comprehend the idea of ever needing to track calories to be lean, or you're a fat fuck in denial whose too lazy to track
>>
>>76678551
I've been using Chronometer recently.
>>
>>76678551
notebook and a pencil
>>
>>76678551
I measure what I eat and use ChatBBC ti tell me how much calories is it
>>
>>76678551
Excel/Google Sheets.
>>
Excel/Sheets. Everything else is garbage.
>>
>>76678551
Ive just been using myfitnesspal. It is good enough for my needs. Ive lost 30lbs with its "guidance".
>>
>>76678629
Lol same
>>
>>76678551
I used Macros because you don't have to make an account.
>>
>>76678557
Watch out for what?
>>
>>76678633
its good to know your tdee at the least, its simple track everything for a month, and weigh yourself once a week. You wouldn't need to track really ever again yet people have no idea what their baseline tdee is
>>
You could use an llm. I use deepseek, because it has unlimited thinking mode but any would probably do.
My setup is this:
- one chat where I put what I ate and quantities (and sometimes the nutrition info) and ask it to generate macros for the entire meal in an easy to copy codebox.
- one daily chat where I put every meal. I start every chat with the same prompt template, with my stats, my target macros, how the previous day went, rolling averages for the last 8 days and a table with the weekly weigh-in information. When the day ends, I ask it to generate a new updated prompt that I open a new chat with for the next day.
It's actually quite fun, like having a nutritionist constantly analysing the data and pushing you every day.

>>76678551
I just keep it in my head, I dont understand how you can't remember what you ate the day
My diet is just not so varied that I would need to write it down and I can calculate everything on the fly

>>76679399
Deepseek is often wrong if you fact check the calorie counts
>>
MyNetDiary is the best one in my experience, because you can scan barcodes for free with it, and you don't need to make an account to use it
>>
>>76678677
Seconding Chronometer. I used MyFitnessPal previously, but scanning barcodes got put behind a paywall. The database is better curated as well - so much user-entered bullshit to sort through in MyFitnessPal.
