Eat less. Move more.

AN ORDINARY STORY OF TRANSFORMATION

I didn't believe I am going to change.

Back in 2019, after well over a decade of being overweight, I was diagnosed with a serious condition that could be treated with weight loss. So this is where my story began. 

After a few days of processing, I accepted that something had to change.

I've started counting calories religiously and observe what I eat. I've cut all alcohol and sweets. I began walking every day. The weight started dropping almost immediately.

I was still being told that I was just losing water. Shortly after, I decided to go and try winter sports again and learned to snowboard and ski.

Not surprisingly, I started liking myself. Finally, the obsession of tracking my food and exercise was paying off.

In the spring, I got into running (believe it or not, almost by accident), and that has started teaching me even more about my body, its use, and the world around me. It has been transformative. I began as a constantly sick, over 200 lbs (that's 90 kg!) person. I am now happily hovering around 150-155 lbs (69-70 kg) and this is the healthiest I've ever been as an adult.

But one thing I still didn't quite enjoy was the technology I used throughout my transformation.

You see, I ended up using (and paying for) an app that is clearly developed by people who don't use it. As a result, not only the basic workflow was clunky, the workflow for the most important aspect of my success was even worse.

My wife is the reason I succeeded. Not only she joined me in the process, but she also kept motivating me. And the app's support for teaming up with your significant other was an aftertought at best.

I've looked at some other apps, but was never completely sold to make the transition. So instead, I decided to go the difficult way.

I am building our own app. I will use my own experience and experience of early adopters to make one perfect for all of us.
