About a year ago i started logging every meal i ate into chatgpt. just typing "two slices of pepperoni pizza, a beer, handful of olives" and asking for a calorie estimate. pasted the totals into a notes app at the end of each day. did it for 6 months. lost 10kg. i'd tried myfitnesspal years before and bounced off the database/barcode thing within a week. food logging felt like data entry. chatgpt was the first version of it that didn't feel awful. four things i learned: accuracy doesn't matter as much as people think. chatgpt is probably 10-20% off on any individual meal. fine.
