Log food on busy days
No scale, no search box marathon. Scan a plate, a barcode, or a menu. FORM is built for weeks when you eat where you are.
Busy is not a personality. It is a week of lunches you did not cook and dinners you did not weigh. A diary that needs a perfect serving fails that week. You stop logging. The streak was never the point. The missing days were.
This use case is FORM when the plate is already in front of you.
The move
- Camera on the plate before you eat, or right after.
- Barcode on anything packaged.
- Menu when you are ordering, not when you get home.
- Type only when a photo cannot see the meal.
Magic moment
Seconds to a card. Protein, carbs, fat, energy. Edit if you know the kitchen. Then get back to the day. Training and rest still belong on that date, but the food log is no longer the thing you skip.
What busy is not
Busy is not a reason to guess at midnight. A late guess is worse than a scan of the actual plate. FORM cannot recover a meal you never captured. It can take a messy restaurant table and still give you a card.
FAQ
What if I forget to scan until later?
Scan leftovers or type what you remember. A photo of an empty plate does less. Capture while the meal is there.
Does this work for takeaway?
Yes. Plate photo or menu. Edit the card if you know extra sauces or sides.
Do I still need to weigh food at home?
Only if you want that control. FORM does not require a scale.
