Why this site exists
I’m not a nutritionist. I’m not a doctor. I’m someone who spent most of his life moving — middle-distance running at a Mumbai level, field hockey on the side — and then, somewhere past 55, watched all of that quietly slip away the way it does for a lot of us.
The fix wasn’t dramatic. No supplements, no extreme program, no before-and-after photo shoot. Just three things, done consistently: intermittent fasting, a keto-friendly way of eating, and a walk every single day that I actually took seriously. Nothing clever. Just repeated, for long enough, to actually work.
Why “Say Your Day” exists
Here’s the part that’s a bit embarrassing to admit: I never actually logged any of it the way the apps want you to. I didn’t search a food database for “2 rotis, homemade.” I didn’t weigh my dal. Most days, I’d just describe what I ate and did — in my own words, the way you’d tell a friend — and ask for a read on where I stood.
That habit, repeated almost every day for months, became the actual prototype for this tool. “Say Your Day” exists because I built it for myself first, used it on my own real food and my own real walks, and only then thought it might be worth sharing.
So when you type your day into the box on the homepage, you’re not using a feature I imagined. You’re using the thing I was already doing — just built out so anyone else can do it too.
Who this is for
This site is written for people like me: Indian-origin, somewhere between 40 and 80, whether you’re living in India or anywhere else in the world. People who eat dal and sabzi and biryani, not “carbs” and “protein servings.” People who’ve tried the popular calorie apps and found them frustrating for exactly the food we actually eat. People who don’t want a clinical lecture — just an honest, useful read on their day.
What this isn’t
This isn’t medical advice, and it never will be. The numbers you get back are honest approximations, not lab-verified measurements — and they’re presented that way on purpose, because false precision isn’t actually useful to anyone. If you’re managing a medical condition or making a significant change to your diet or activity, please talk to a real doctor or dietitian. (Full detail in the Health & Medical Disclaimer.)
What this is, is one person’s lived experience, turned into a tool, offered honestly. I’m still using it myself, every day. I’d genuinely like to know if it works for you too.
