Three macros drawn the same size is three decisions a day.
Reach your protein target and the carb and fat tracking becomes less important. Every other tracker gives you protein, carbs and fat rings - we focus on the protein and the rest sorts itself out.

Three reasons, and none of them is that protein is magic
It is not a health food and it does not burn fat. It is the macro whose absence you notice, and that turns out to be the more useful property.
- 1. It keeps you fuller than carbs or fat do. Not the most filling thing on a plate, that is volume and water. But of the three it is the one that gets you to dinner without the four o'clock snack.
- 2. It keeps what you meant to keep. Losing weight costs muscle as well as fat. Enough protein keeps the loss on the side you meant.
- 3. It is one decision, not three. Build the plate around the protein and the carbs and the fat land roughly where they should. One thing per meal is a habit. Three is a spreadsheet.
the one number you reach, not avoid
Your number, not a number
The target is worked out from your weight, your height, your age, how much you move and which direction you are going, in the six questions the app asks when you set it up. It moves when you tell it your weight has moved.
- 1. It is set once and revisited, not tuned daily. A target you adjust every time you miss it is not a target. The app recalculates when the inputs change and otherwise leaves it alone.
- 2. Reaching it is the event, not exceeding it. Cross the line and the dial says so and stops counting against you. Nothing above the target counts against you, and nothing needs to.
- 3. Carbs and fat are still there. Smaller, and on the same screen. A glance, not a decision -- and the drawing says so.
The other number Snapkin puts on the screen
Added sugar, as a ceiling with its own small ring: sugar that was put in, not sugar that grew there. The banana does not count against you and the granola does. It goes amber when you pass it, never red, because a day over the line is information and not a verdict.

That is the whole habit, and it survives restaurants, holidays and Thursdays, because there is nothing to keep up.
