Calorie Counter: DietSarge

DietSarge is a calorie counter and food diary with a drill sergeant built in. Log a meal by voice, photo, barcode or one tap, get an instant comeback, earn rank for every day you report, and face a weekly inspection on your real weight trend. Every feature is included and there is no account.

LOG BY VOICE · ONE-TAP WIDGET · WELCOME BACK
• Log by voice: tap the mic and say "two eggs and toast" — each food is logged with its calories
• Quick-log widget: your three regular foods on the home screen, logged without opening the app
• Welcome back: missed days? Your rank stays, nothing resets, one tap copies your last day's meals

BODY CALCULATORS
• BMI calculator with the WHO adult ranges, new on the Trend tab
• TDEE calculator: daily calorie needs for four activity levels, plus your resting BMR
• Body fat calculator using the tape-measure (US Navy) method from neck, waist and hips
• Uses your height, weight and age, follows kg/lb and cm/in, works offline, saves nothing. Everyday estimates, not medical advice

YOUR DRILL SERGEANT
• Pick a tone: Mild, Spicy or Spartan. Late snacks and skipped breakfasts get a comment
• The sergeant only comments on logging, timing and excuses — never on your body

RANK, INSPECTION, PENALTY
• Every day you log is a service day. Recruit to Sergeant Major, and rank never goes down
• Weekly inspection judges your smoothed 7-day trend, not a single weigh-in
• Go over your rations by 100 kcal or more and the sergeant offers a penalty drill: 15, 30 or 50 squats, once a day, with an easier option. It never earns calories back, and you can refuse
• Excuse button: confess "I was busy" and get the comeback you deserve

FUTURE YOU
• Choose a photo and slide toward your goal weight. Processed on your phone, never saved

LOG A MEAL IN SECONDS
• Frequent and recent foods are one tap away, and you can copy yesterday's breakfast, lunch or dinner
• Type a whole meal like "2 eggs and toast" and get each item estimated
• Photo of your plate for an AI estimate you can adjust — corrected portions are remembered
• Scan a barcode (Open Food Facts) or create your own foods and recipes

NUTRITION YOU CAN TRUST
• Built-in public tables, searchable offline: USDA FoodData Central (US), Korea's Ministry of Food and Drug Safety and Japan's Standard Tables of Food Composition
• 159 everyday foods named in 31 languages with sensible portions
• Source shown on every food, with calories, carbs, protein, fat, sugars, fiber and sodium

SEE YOUR REAL TREND
• Daily weigh-ins are smoothed into a trend line, so water swings don't fool you
• Weekly change and an honest goal-date estimate from your last three weeks
• Your real daily burn: after two weeks of logs, DietSarge works out what you actually burn for your target

INTERMITTENT FASTING TIMER
• 12:12, 14:10, 16:8, 18:6, 20:4 or your own length, up to 24 hours

HEALTHY LIMITS BUILT IN
• Daily targets never go below 1,200 kcal (women), 1,500 kcal (men) or 1,350 kcal, and never below your estimated resting energy
• Weight loss is limited to 1% of body weight per week; no weight-loss target under 18 or with a BMI under 18.5, and goal weights below a healthy BMI are flagged
• Safety switch: if you eat below your minimum on most days, are under 18, have a BMI under 18.5 or want to gain weight, the sergeant stands down for a calm tone and a link to helplines
• Eating over your target is shown as a plain number, never a warning in red

YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
• No account. Your diary is stored only on your phone
☆ Optional: a monthly subscription removes only the ads. Every feature stays the same
• Backup file and spreadsheet export

GOOD TO KNOW
• Photo and text estimates go to our server for the AI model and are not stored. Everything else works offline
• Tough-love tone, not medical advice. If you are pregnant, have diabetes or have had an eating disorder, talk to a doctor first
