Not flexible enough for real life
The general premise of the app is great, but it’s not without problems. It had me eating so much food the first week that I gained weight. The second week, it cut my carbs roughly in half and my weight started trending downward, though I was still above my starting weight. For the third week, it again recommended that I reduce macros, but the app doesn’t give you an idea of what your new macros will be and you won’t be able to see your new macros until you make a selection. You also cannot change your selection, so if you choose to reduce macros for the next week and the app almost completely cuts carbs from your diet, which is what happened in my case, you’ll have no way to change that selection for an entire week. I know my body better than the app does, so I knew better than to completely cut out carbs, while still training heavy, so I had to select “over macros” for every meal check-in for an entire week. This is frustrating since it kills your meal adherence percentage and makes the shopping list feature useless. Overall, I’d still recommend the app with the caveat that you may have to take the macro recommendations with a grain of salt as the changes from week to week can be too extreme. That being said, I’m down 6lbs after 4 weeks. If you use common sense and don’t take the macro recommendations as gospel you’ll be fine.
Steve Fallon,
Actually achieve your New Year’s Resolutions
I’ve been using RP products since around 2015. I started with the original Renaissance Periodization book where I used the principles to develop my own diet. I was somewhat successful, but found I needed some more guidance and accountability. I was fortunate enough to afford 1:1 coaching for several years where I had several successful cuts and bulks. After learning a ton and seeing great results I decided late 2021 that it was time to start venturing back off on my own. However, I still needed the accountability. So I decided to give the app a try
I honestly wasn’t sure I’d like it since I got use to a more pen/paper approach and doing math to meet my macros. I ran a maintenance diet through the holidays and have loved it. The barcode scanner and restaurant options allowed me a ton of flexibility while navigating the the holidays. The check ins offered a good mix of accountability of having to hit my macros, but also the autonomy to go against the AI recommendations if I felt it was appropriate. With the help of the app I was able to successfully maintain my weight through the holidays while still enjoying good food/drinks with friends and family.
Now that the holidays are ended I am trying my first cut to be part of the RP Diet Challenge for 2022. While I may not win the contest, I know my diet will be a success if I’m just honest with the app and do what it tells me.

BuffCatLady,
Rigid and inaccurate
Overall the functionality of the app was good, and the app is cheaper than my fitness pal. The app is basically unusable because of its rigidity. If you need to make adjustments it’s impossible and leads you to entering inaccurate data just to close out the screen. You have to balance your macros if you don’t fit them exactly, you cannot be over macros for any given meal, and protein macros cannot be increased. Portion sizes are pre decided, and if you adjust them and go over for a meal you have to balance it out from other meals So your tracking is no longer accurate.
You can pull meals forward from last week, which is really convenient.
You cannot eat a meal during a time you have labeled busy, and you cannot change that time, which leads to having to enter meals at different times then they are actually eaten. If you cannot guarantee a meal time at work and mark it as busy time in the app — but some days you can grab a snack or a shake you cannot enter it in, or create a new meal for that purpose. You cannot move your training days either, so if you need to train on a day that is marked a non training day, your macros will not change for that day. If you moved training it should pull your already entered macros over for you and rebalance them so you know what you now have to eat.
I really wanted to use this, but it does not fit my lifestyle and I’m wasting time entering foods into the app that don’t actually reflect what I’ve eaten.

VLK0212,
Not what I was looking for
I was looking for an app to track my meals. MyFitnessPal was awesome 10 years ago, but over time there have been so many added versions of food that finding the accurate version is difficult. This is a meal planner. You cannot log what you actually ate. This app wants me to eat 40g of protein at bedtime. I’m not doing that. I won’t fall asleep with that food on my stomach. I contacted the company and there is no way around that. This isn’t what I was looking for. I’m glad they offered a 2 week trial so I could figure that out before investing. If you want to see that they suggest 30g of protein for lunch and then a list of ways to get 30g of protein and the appropriate portion size, this is the app for you. If you’re looking to hold yourself accountable, keep looking. This isn’t the program for you.
***UPDATE***
First... these people reply for sure! They are very responsive. Cannot day enough for how awesome they are about that. I’m still struggling with believing this will be a match for me, but my friend got her to give her more realistic macros. The game is you have to lie to the app to compensate for unpredictable things. Example: I wake up early because I take a medicine that requires I not eat for an hour after. I need to tell it I’m waking up when I’m eligible to eat. I’m going to set up another diet and give it another try. 😊 And will try Casein before bedtime. Thanks!

Me Cairo,
More foods please
The app is great in every way. I’m a data scientist and I like that it adapts as I give it my weight feedback. Perhaps there’s a way to provide fitness inputs like periodic blood tests or a basic exercise standard (mini-Murph time etc)...Even if exercise isn’t completely linked, it’d be fun to have all in one place (you might add a place to indicate energy level at the end of the day for those that like)
My only complaint is that it doesn’t have a ton of foods to enter (no bacon, OJ) and less education (doesn’t salt matter? Fiber? Does Kraft count as cheese (is it similar to real cheese or must I go to the deli counter to be ON the diet) What about coffee) in fact there is no where to input any kind of drink (does everyone only drink water all the time? Tea?).
Ideally I should be able to create an entree with ingredients and add that while bundle for simplicity (like Quiche) seems like making a bundle labeled a Quiche would be technically simple. And creating a subset of foods highlighted as not particularly recommended like V8 or a croissant (but available) would be better than just blanking the meal. Then hitting the meal wouldn’t necessarily have to be binary but continuous (you’d 90% hit your lunch because your Philly Cheesesteak had Cheeze Whiz, rather than Provilone)

TrevCali,
Made me a believer
I’m not into CrossFit, but I have a home gym and do beach body workouts as well as free training. This app had me skeptical at first, my wife showed it to me a initially and I thought it was silly, boy was I wrong. I gave it a shot for a week to see if these MASSIVE meals it was giving me would actually help me lose the lbs. Truth be told, didn’t lose weight until day 3. Then something happened, perhaps metabolically? I started to shed weight daily... I haven’t reached a plateau where progression has slowed yet. The app monitors your weight loss, adjusts macros, and keeps you on track. I’m down 10 lbs after 3 weeks and loving it. I have it set to 0 workouts despite working out 4-5 times a week, and daily walks, probably should be using the workout function but I like the freedom of working out whenever I want instead of scheduling it, that’s just me though. I am pretty sure if I can keep my self control, which is improving, I can be at my goal weight in less that 3 months. Then it is time to slap on some muscle and turn into a monster meat hog! Just kidding, I want a lean frame and to just be healthy for my kids. Calories are a thing of the past, watch those macros and enjoy your food! Easy as scanning your favorite stuff and making a meal that suits you.
Yamancoolfosho,
Pretty good
The app gets results if uses strictly, that’s where I give it most of its stars. That said, pen and paper gets you there too if you’re compliant. The app leaves a lot to be desired in terms of use ability. Once you end a diet phase you can’t see history. If you lock in next week’s macros incorrectly too bad, that’s your macros for the whole next week. I get not wanting people to adjust daily but at least on maintenance the user could get more control. Also, at least on maintenance, it would be cool if the user could control a little bit of the fat/carb split, like go a little heavier on one or the other based on preference. Food database is weak and it is unclear if the erroneous errors ever get cleaned up. I created a ton of customs that aren’t searchable that is now just a long ugly list. When I add new products with images and all it is unclear if they ever get added to the database. When copying a meal be careful when you edit, I’ve accidentally edited the previous (copy from) meal instead of the new meal several times. There are several more examples. Some of the stuff is small, some big, some hard to fix, some easy. From the update history it doesn’t look like they put a lot of effort into improving the app, really just maintaining it. Would be nice to see some small but impactful updates. Tons of potential here.
crm0134,
Great app that delivers
This is exactly what I have been looking for. I have been counting macros for years but developed the bad habit of eating too much garbage within the macros. I reached a plateau and I couldn’t coach myself out of it. This app pushes me to make better choices in foods because the preset foods are whole foods. This has helped keep me full when in a deficit. It also makes adjustments for days when I have heavy workouts and so far I haven’t found myself dragging as much as before and I am seeing results that I couldn’t bring about coaching myself.
It isn’t perfect and there are a two things that I would adjust if given a chance-
-Everything is in grams. So much math and time spent doing conversions. I know what 3 ounces of chicken or 1 1/2 ounces of bread look like but then I have to convert it to grams. Even when I create a food in ounces, it converts it to grams it converts it into grams.
-All of the proteins are by raw weight. Weigh egg whites? No thanks. I cook food for a family and it would be helpful if there was an option to weigh proteins after cooking. I can see the benefits in accuracy by weighing things raw but it’s more work than I want to do.

vgujjgftyu,
It is... but not like the templates
The templates were hard to follow based on the “I didn’t bother to read the instructions” questions on FB. But if one reads the instructions and the free papers on why rp works and the way it is, the customer actually learns what’s effective and how to make the rules fit their life. With that knowledge and templates I could customize RP to fit my goals and life. The app dumbs down the whole process. The user doesn’t have to learn anything about nutrition. But in the process of making it so simple, it has lost all flexibility. It fits the uber-athelete doing intense training, and that’s it.
Two minor glitches in the software itself. In its attempt to be super helpful in designing compliant meals it comes up with stupid quantities like 3.4 whole eggs and 4.3 strips of bacon. Second, the meal save function doesn’t work. I can create a compliant breakfast of two eggs, half strip bacon, 1 thin slice killer bread, and 1/2Tb jam, supplemented with 3/4 scoop of protein in water. I ask it to save that food combo as “eggs and toast.” Next week I try to populate my meal plan with “eggs and toast” and it puts all the foods in, but at stupid ratios; not the ones I saved.
All in all the app is only slightly better than using the paper (pdf) templates and any random calorie counter.

Not Gonna Pay You,
App is Good but not Great
The app is good in the sense that it’s easy to track your macros with the endless amounts of food options to plug in to the app, as well as including nutrition info for some items that aren’t listed. The downside of the app is it doesn’t replace having a diet coach in person tracking your progress. The first couple weeks I started I dropped 7 lbs which is attributed to cleaner eating and less bloating. My weight stayed pretty consistent afterward with minimal movement downward on the scale but my body composition started to form nicely. Due to not losing weight, the app recommended I reduce my nutrients. I did start to lose weight but I started to feel a little flat. Eventually I plateaued on my weight again and it recommended to reduce nutrients. I asked a friend who did amateur bodybuilding and was told my fats and carbs were way too low for the daily activity I did. He did say the protein was on point but I need to bump everything else up. It’s a great tool to track your protein but I think tracking your progress strictly in the scale can be a little frustrating. I feel for some people this app in conjunction with working with a nutritionist is amazing, but by itself can be a challenge.
