Notes from the build

Launch updates, what we’re shipping next, and how thycc.fit stays one product across web and mobile.

Day one: thycc.fit is live

Today we shipped Thy Calorie Counter — food logging, MET burn estimates, weight goals, and metrics — on the open web. iPhone and Android apps are next, wrapping this same site in a WebView.

Day two: phones, imports, and Grok

Day one got thycc.fit on the web. Day two is about using it everywhere you already are — on a phone, from another tracker’s export, and from a chat with Grok.

Built for the phone

The tracker and metrics pages now lay out cleanly on iPhone and Android widths. The menu (Today / Metrics / account links) lives behind a hamburger on small screens; date controls stay easy to hit; charts and tables stay inside the viewport instead of forcing sideways scroll of the whole page. Import, account, and admin screens share the same top bar so navigation feels consistent once you’re logged in.

Bring a diary from somewhere else

Switching apps shouldn’t mean starting from zero. The import page accepts exports from MyFitnessPal, Lose It!, Cronometer, FatSecret, or a generic CSV — foods and weigh-ins land in your thycc diary with source-specific how-to steps on the page.

Talk to thycc from Grok

You can create a personal API key under Account and connect Grok to https://thycc.fit/mcp with a Bearer token. From chat, Grok can search FatSecret, log food and activity, save a weigh-in, read today’s diary, and pull metrics trends — without opening the tracker UI.

Keys are hashed at rest, shown once when you create them, and revocable anytime. The homepage showcase now includes a Grok screenshot alongside the food-logging shots (tap any shot for a larger view).

What to try

  • Open the tracker on your phone and use the menu for Metrics or account
  • Import a diary export if you’re switching from another app
  • Create an API key and add the Thycc connector in Grok
  • Ask Grok something like “check my trends” or “log oatmeal for breakfast”

Day one: thycc.fit is live

Today we flipped the switch on thycc.fit — Thy Calorie Counter. It’s a free web tracker for logging meals from FatSecret, estimating activity burn with Compendium MET values, watching weight against a goal, and reading the day’s deficit on one screen.

Day one includes the food diary, activity burn, goal weight pacing, a metrics page with line charts, private accounts, and the landing experience you’re reading from. We’re building in public from here — expect more posts as features land.

iPhone and Android apps are coming soon

Native store listings for iPhone and Android are on the roadmap. Important detail: those apps will not be rewritten as in-phone (native UI) programs. They’ll ship as a thin shell that loads thycc.fit in a WebView — the same website you use in Safari or Chrome, packaged for home-screen install and App Store / Play Store distribution.

That keeps one codebase, one design, and one set of features. When the web tracker improves, the apps improve with it. No separate mobile rewrite to drift out of sync.

What you can do today

  • Create a free account and open the tracker in your browser
  • Log foods, activity, and weigh-ins; set calorie and weight goals
  • Check Metrics for intake, burn, macros, and weight over time
  • Follow us on Facebook for release notes
