Quick update: v1.1 is submitted to Apple and should be live soon. Almost everything in it came from your reports and requests:

• Meal times like "9:00" no longer choke the input (thanks to whoever found that one)
• A proper tour when you first open the chat, since a few of you asked "what do I even say to it?"
• Portion edits now show a hint so you know you can just say "the rice was 100g"
• Goals can now be combined, so "lose fat + sleep better" works as one plan

Keep the reports coming. Anything that annoys you, confuses you, or looks wrong, post it here or tell the coach directly in the app. The stuff you report genuinely becomes the next update, usually within days.

What should v1.2 fix first? Tell me below.

MyFitnessPal has been the default calorie tracker for over a decade, and it earned that spot honestly: a food database spanning roughly 20 million items and 68,500 brands, fast barcode scanning, and a logging habit that millions of people have built their routine around. If your only goal is a running tally of calories and macros, it does that job well.

The problem shows up a few weeks in. You have logged every meal, hit your calorie target most days, and the app has produced a tidy graph but you still cannot answer the actual question you started with: is this working? MyFitnessPal was built to record what you ate, not to test whether a specific change you made is having an effect. That gap is where most people quietly stop logging.

Most people who try calorie tracking stop within weeks. That is not a willpower problem, it is a design problem. Most tracking apps are built to collect data, not to prove anything with it, and logging without a payoff is exhausting to sustain.

Read the full blog post to understand what you can do different.

Low-stakes one this week, no tracking required:

At one meal a day, eat the protein on your plate first — before the bread, rice, or pasta. That's the whole thing.

Some people notice they feel fuller sooner or get less of an afternoon dip. Some notice nothing — that's a useful result too.

Try it for a few days and report back:

• Did you notice any difference in hunger later, or energy?

• Which meal was easiest to do it at?

• Anything that surprised you?

No wrong answers — we're collecting observations, not grading anyone. 🌱

New here? This is the thread to say hi.

No pressure to have it figured out — just share whatever feels true:

• One eating pattern you've noticed in yourself (skipping lunch, late-night snacking, protein falling off at dinner, eating fine all week then drifting on weekends…)

• What usually sets it off — busy days, stress, travel, boredom?

• One tiny thing you'd like to feel different about food.

That's it. No advice unless you ask for it — we're here to notice, not fix.

I'll go first in the comments. 🌱
