## What is Gym Geek Calorie Counter?

Gym Geek is the smart calorie counter that keeps your weight goal on track. For weight loss, maintenance or weight gain. Track calories by scanning barcodes, searching our food database or using Quick Track.

1) Set up your weight plan

Enter your age, gender, height and current weight to start your weight plan. Then choose how quickly you want to lose or gain weight, from 0.5 lb per week to 2 lb per week.

2) Phase in

If you choose to phase in while losing weight, you'll start by maintaining your current weight. Over the phase in period, your calorie goal will gradually decrease to your target rate of weight loss. 

Phase in over 1 or 2 weeks for the best results. Although you won't see results on day 1, you're more likely to stick to the plan.

Phasing in avoids sudden changes to your diet and dampens your feelings of hunger.

3) Track your calories

Track your calories by scanning barcodes, searching our 3.8 million item food database or using the Quick Track tool.

Don't worry about being 100% accurate. Gym Geek uses Smart Calorie Adjustments to update your calorie goal as you lose or gain weight.

The app automatically switches between Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.

4) Smart Calorie Adjustments

Gym Geek uses Smart Calorie Adjustments to update your calorie goal as you lose or gain weight. Your calorie goal updates automatically to keep your weight loss or weight gain goal on track.

Track your weight often (at least weekly) for the best results.

### 3/5 — Questionable calorie content data

*2026-08-11*

Definitely helpful but there are multiple entries for the calories in a food which makes it difficult to know which is accurate. I even found one for “fried chicken and mashed protesters”. 😂
Make one wonder who’s editing this thing. It did help me reach my goal though.

### 3/5 — Great info/unfortunate app

*2026-08-11*

This app provides a ton of helpful info and good advice. However the diet tracking portion of the app is like communicating with someone who’s never heard of food. It’s impossible to actually track accurate intake because it doesn’t have reasonable selections. If the app were improved I would definitely try the service again!

### 2/5 — Add micronutrients and ai is wildly inaccurate

*2026-08-10*

The app is really nice and I like that there’s more nuance to the calorie goals opposed to other apps. But for such a Hefty subscription price I’m extremely disappointed to not be able to see micronutrients or even fiber intake. These things are just as important to nutrition and true health as macronutrients. I also added a chick fil a kale crunch salad and the ai calculated it to be 400 calories but it’s actually 170. The grilled nuggets were more accurate calorically but the macros were very off. About a 8 gram protein difference. They say to check the info but don’t give you a way to edit it and their feature for adding calories without a label doesn’t allow you to track macros.

### 3/5 — Add fiber content

*2026-08-06*

Needs more . Add fiber intake . Also the macros on my beef and rice were off by a bit. Like the price tho. Just needs more

### 5/5 — Free service is amazing

*2026-08-06*

The free package is absolutely amazing and works perfectly for just counting calories if you’re not too serious to commit! It’s calorie tracking ai is free to use and really helps me out a ton!! The paid service is definitely worth it if you really want to get commited and isn’t hard to use at all!

### 5/5 — great app!

*2026-07-25*

i lost over 40 lbs with this app, really recommend it

### 4/5 — Tracking items

*2026-07-19*

Every time i try to search up an item on the search bar it always says that there is no internet connection even though i have full bars. i also try to use my data instead but gives me the same result. please resolve this issue.

### 1/5 — Search function useless

*2026-07-10*

I found the dunkin iced coffee i like. Ai generated. It has cream in it. Tried to add another and could not find it. Searched to try to add it as an ingredient. Could not find it even though i typed it exactly the same. You cannot favorite foods. The “saved foods” is for adding your own

### 5/5 — Helps me understand just how much I’m eating

*2026-06-07*

I love this app! I find being able to write down what I’m eating and have the app add it up is very helpful. I love too how it adjusts your calories based on your goals. :) Good app for my basic needs.

### 3/5 — Am I missing something?

*2026-06-04*

If you were to ask me: “why are you about to cancel your free trial?”

My answer would be: because of the cumbersome nature of creating favorite items. Just let me add something I searched for? Or am I missing something?

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your feedback. The Search feature will automatically learn which items you tracked recently or that you track most often for each meal, and will suggest these items first at the top of the search results. This feature also remembers the quantities, so you can Quick Add on subsequent days without having to search again. Although we do not have a favorites feature, you can use the Saved Items tab to create and save a recipe if you find yourself repeatedly adding the same items each day. I agree it should be easier to create a saved item ("favorite") from an existing item in our food database, and I've sent your feedback to the team for review.
