Learn how to understand your calorie needs and track your progress.
Discover exactly how much energy your unique body actually burns! Our AI analyzes your weight trends and calorie intake over time to calculate your personal Daily Energy. While there’s some advanced science whirring away behind the scenes, we keep the experience simple and approachable, helping you understand the "why" behind your calorie needs.
We need at least a 14-day streak of consistent food and weight logging to provide an accurate Daily Energy calculation. If you see a progress bar instead of the button, keep up the great work and keep logging!
Once you have completed a streak, Daily Energy stays available. The app keeps using your most recent streak's Daily Energy and, for any day you didn't log food, runs the math in reverse: your smoothed weight trend shows how far above or below maintenance you were eating, so each unlogged day gets an estimated intake (Daily Energy + 7,700 cal/kg × that day's trend change). Estimated days show up as dashed purple bars in the calorie chart, and they only appear when you have a weigh-in within a week of that day—so keep stepping on the scale. Your Daily Energy number itself refreshes the next time you complete a two-week streak.
Understanding your Daily Energy is the fundamental "why" behind your nutrition goals. Instead of relying on generic formulas or calculators that don't know your history, we use your actual, real-world data. This professional-grade insight helps you stay upbeat and informed about how much you should eat to support your healthy lifestyle, whether you want to lose, gain, or maintain.
Your Daily Energy isn't a fixed number—it changes as your weight, muscle mass, and activity levels shift. It stays with you after a streak ends, and completing a new 14-day streak refreshes it so you can see how your body is adapting and stay confident on your journey!
