For clients
No food diary. Photograph your grocery or restaurant receipt and every item gets a plain word — and a better version if there is one. Your coach sees the page you do.
First time? The link your coach sent signs you up · Nothing to install
How it works
Photograph the receipt when you shop or eat out. That’s the whole habit.
Every item gets one word — good, free, fine, or swap — and a one-line why.
Log what you ate from any receipt, on the day you ate it. “None of it” is a real answer.
One better version of something you bought, with your coach’s note on it. Save it, or say it’s not useful.
What you’ll see
Maya’s real screen: four weeks of her shopping, week by week. Tap a week.
What you bought, by week. Not what you ate.
Maya is a sample client, not a real person. The screen is the real one.
1 receipt · 7 items
Good works for your goal · Free no real calories per serving, not unlimited · Fine nothing to fix · Swap a better version exists. Counted from lines you’ve confirmed. Buying isn’t eating.
What you bought
The better version
Same drink, same brand, zero sugar — 140 fewer calories a can.
Only what Maya logged — she bought seven things and said what she ate of them.
Grocery · Sat 16 Aug
Maya’s receipt — exactly what she and her coach both see.
140 cal a serving · 0 g protein · 8% of your day
On the receipt: COCA COLA 12PK
A lot of sugar, and it won’t fill you up.
120 cal a serving · 26 g protein · 7% of your day
On the receipt: CHKN BRST FAM PK
Lots of protein, few calories. Meals can be built around it.
100 cal a serving · 17 g protein · 6% of your day
On the receipt: GREEK YOGRT PLN 32OZ
High protein for its calories.
60 cal a serving · 2 g protein · 3% of your day
On the receipt: FRZ MXD VEG 32OZ
Fills the plate for almost no calories.
200 cal a serving · 20 g protein · 11% of your day
On the receipt: QST PROTEIN BAR CHOC
About 20g of protein for 200 calories.
0 cal a serving · 0 g protein
On the receipt: SPRK WATER 12PK
Zero calories. Nothing to count.
140 cal a serving · 2 g protein · 8% of your day
On the receipt: TORT CHIPS PARTY SZ
140 calories is one serving — how much you have is the only lever.
Good and free are wins. Fine is fine. Only swap asks for a change — and it names one.
The idea
CalorieSmart doesn’t judge whether a food is healthy. It asks one question: is this the best version of the thing you were buying anyway — and if not, what is?
You don’t type in meals or remember Tuesday. The receipt wrote it down, and every food you’ve bought is one tap away.
Three of the four words mean “fine.” The fourth, Swap, comes with a specific better version of the same thing — not a reason to feel bad.
Buying it isn’t eating it. Only what you log counts toward your day — and a blank day is never read as a day you ate nothing.
Fair questions
Your coach sends you a link — open it, pick a password, and you’re in. There’s no other way to sign up as a client, so if you haven’t got it yet, ask your coach. No coach yet? Put your name down — we pair people with coaches in small groups.
You, and your coach. That’s the list. You upload the receipt yourself — nothing is pulled from your bank, your email, or a store account. Your coach sees your items and what you logged; no other coach can. And you can ask for everything to be deleted, any time.
No. It runs in your phone’s browser. Tap Grocery or Restaurant, take the photo, done.
No. The receipt is the cart, not the plate. What you ate you log yourself, and only that counts toward your day.
Then that’s the next thing you and your coach work on. A Swap is an offer, not a rule you broke.
Lines it can’t read are marked unconfirmed and left out of every total. Type what it was and it’s graded like the rest.
No. Your coach’s account covers you — there is nothing for you to pay, ever.
Same foods. Better versions.
If your coach has sent your link, you’re one photo away. If you don’t have a coach on CalorieSmart yet, show them the page written for them.
