On Monday, I was talking to someone about not getting enough daily fiber.
Then, I saw this Reddit post that talked about using ChatGPT to track macronutrients - and how it resulted in that user losing 20lbs and getting into the best shape of their life.
So I sat down and built this custom GPT. This has been a breakthrough all week.
How it works:
- enter your personal specs—weight, height, body fat percentage (scale estimate is fine, you can even submit a shirtless selfie and it'll estimate)
- watch it set your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) goal
- send it a photo of your meals,
- boom, it transforms into a macro-tracking table, showing you exactly how you're pacing towards your goal for the day.
You can't impact what you don't measure. It's true for marketing, it's also true for what you eat.
I've tried apps like myfitnesspal and I was just never able to get it to stick because of the friction of scanning barcodes, entering details. Sending a picture and having ChatGPT break it all down is insanely easy and surprisingly fun. It's also shocking how accurate ChatGPT gets things and how well versed it is in different foods.
No more guesswork, just accuracy.
Couple of behavior shifts already:
- switching to egg whites, fat-free milk
- drinking more olipop
- bought a bunch of natto
- trying konjac noodles
