One block = 100 calories
Your calorie deficit, finally something you can see.
Calorie Blocks works out your basal metabolic rate, subtracts the deficit you're aiming for, and hands you a grid of blocks for the day. You type in what you ate and how many calories it was — no scrolling through enormous food databases or untangling macros. Fill blocks with meals. Earn some back with exercise. Go over, and the blocks you borrowed disappear from the rest of your week.
Green: on target
Every block up to your deficit-adjusted allowance. Land here and the weight comes off.
Orange: eating the deficit
Past your goal but under maintenance. You're not gaining, you're just not losing.
Red: past maintenance
Every red block is borrowed from tomorrow, and it shows up on the week view.
A week that actually balances
Blow through Saturday and Sunday's grid shrinks. The weekly deficit is the number that holds.
Hard reset or rolling
Start each week clean, or let unpaid overage follow you until you've earned it back.
Pick your own week
Your week can start on any day, and the history log shows how close every one landed.
Simple by design
Other calorie apps bury you in databases, macros and barcode scanning. Calorie Blocks is deliberately different.
No food database
You already know the number on the packet or the menu. Just type the calories. That's it.
No macros to memorise
Protein, carbs, fat — leave that to the other apps. Calorie Blocks is only about energy in and out.
Self-input, not scanned
No barcode scanning, no guesswork, no hidden corrections. What you log is exactly what counts.
