Square Meal

About this app

Square Meal builds a meal plan from your body and your goal, then corrects it as your weight actually changes.

HOW IT WORKS

You enter your height, weight, age, sex and activity level. Square Meal estimates your daily energy expenditure and derives a calorie target from the pace you chose.

It then lays out your week: which meals, on which days, and which cooking sessions prepare them. Two sessions a week are enough to cover fourteen plates.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT

Most apps ask you to log everything and leave you to interpret the numbers. Square Meal does the opposite: you weigh yourself in the morning, and the plan does the rest.

Your weigh-ins are read as a trend, not as isolated numbers. A linear regression over fourteen days separates real change from the noise of a bathroom scale, which moves by half a kilo from one morning to the next for reasons that have nothing to do with fat.

When the measured trend drifts from the pace you set, and only when the gap is larger than the uncertainty of the measurement, Square Meal proposes a new calorie target. It shows you what it found and what it would change. You decide.

The correction is damped: never more than 150 calories from one adjustment to the next. Your plan moves the way a body does, not the way a spreadsheet does.

WHAT IS INSIDE

• A weekly plan, meal by meal, with its calories
• Cooking sessions grouped so you prepare once and eat all week
• A shopping list per session, with checkboxes that survive the store
• Daily weigh-ins, correctable after the fact
• Statistics on your current plan and on every plan you have finished
• Past plans kept, so you can look back at what worked

METRIC OR IMPERIAL, FRENCH OR ENGLISH

Kilograms or pounds, centimetres or feet. The app opens in French on a French device and in English everywhere else, and you can change both at any time.

NO ADS, NO TRACKERS

Square Meal contains no advertising, no analytics and no third-party trackers. Your data stays on a server in the European Union and is never sold, rented or shared. You can delete your account, and everything it holds, from the settings screen.

Square Meal is for adults. It does not diagnose, treat or prevent anything, and it is not a substitute for advice from a health professional.

What’s new

Square Meal builds your week around the days you actually cook.

Plan your meals, get one shopping list per cooking session, and log your morning weight. Square Meal reads the trend across your last fourteen weigh-ins and adjusts your daily calories when your own numbers, not a formula, say it should.
