Two ways to keep a record
Counting tracks what went in: every meal, every gram, against a number for the day.Calorie counting,macrosandpointsare all in the catalog as programs of their own.
Effort tracks what the day cost you. One tap says how the day felt, from heavy to light, and the weight goes next to it.
Both are valid. Undiet is built around the second one, and this guide explains why and what it changes.
What two taps capture
Your weight on a ruler that scrolls under a fixed mark, so there is nothing to aim at. Then the feeling comb, ten steps from heavy to light, set with a thumb.
That is a full check-in. There is no food database, no barcode scanner and no number for the day to come in under.
Why the feeling matters
A flat week with light days is a different week from a flat week with heavy ones, even if the scale says the same thing. Over months, the comb shows which diet was easy to live with and which one was not.
That is often the thing people want to know and cannot see in a calorie log: not whether a diet worked on paper, but whether they could keep doing it.
The streak counts days, not kilograms
The streak grows on days you showed up, whatever the weight did. A heavy day that you logged still counts.
Rewarding the number pushes people toward extremes; rewarding the check-in only rewards the check-in. The community credits work the same way, earned for taking part and never for losing weight.
Quick logs, nothing mandatory
If you want to note a meal, a drink, a walk or a dose, each is one tap from the plus button. None of it is required, and none of it is counted into a total.
The logs sit on the timeline as context. The reflection at the end of the week is written from them in plain sentences, with no verdicts.
When counting is still the right tool
If your program is itself a counting method, count. Markcalorie countingormacrosin Undiet, keep your usual counting app for the numbers, and let Undiet keep the timeline and the feeling.
The two fit together. Undiet is the layer over any method, including no method, andintuitiveormindful eatingsit in the catalog beside the strict ones.
Try the comb
The home page has the check-in to play with: slide the comb and the app answers. If you want a shortlist of programs that match the effort you can give,Find my dietasks exactly that.
