It’s a fast-paced world; the many distractions everyday paired with the busy work life makes it difficult for us to meet the needs for a good diet and health. The conflicting and complicated discussion on healthy eating has made our people’s progression to their fitness goals even more challenging.

The hardest challenge was coding the algorithm which allowed users to change meals as per their needs. To solve this, we researched the science behind gaining and losing weight, and managed to use this in a way which was programmable and able to be changed by the user, so they can meet their goals.

Whilst we are happy with our progress, we regret not starting earlier, as well as being unsure of our final idea, leaving us to narrow it down and begin development quite late. Our initial planning was also too ambitious, leading us to fall behind at first.
