## What is Surplus?

Built for skinny hardgainers who struggle to eat ENOUGH to gain muscle.

If you've ever heard "just eat more" but the scale won't budge — Surplus is for you. Most nutrition apps guilt-trip you about what you've already eaten. Surplus flips the script: it shows the gap. How many calories you're still SHORT of your daily surplus goal, so you know exactly how much more to eat to keep gaining lean muscle.

No tedious food logging. No calorie-counting every bite. The scale is your source of truth.

Why hardgainers love Surplus

- Reversed nutrition view — see "you're SHORT X kcal" toward your gain goal, not what's "left"
- One-tap daily weigh-in — log your weight in seconds
- Prescriptive meal checklist — tick off meals to hit your target, zero calorie math
- Smart weight-trend line — cuts through daily water-weight noise so you see real progress
- Adaptive nudge — if your trend stalls for ~2 weeks, Surplus tells you to add +150–200 kcal/day
- Streaks & reminders — stay consistent on the days motivation dips

Made for real life

Whether you're a student, an office worker, or a new gym-goer with a fast metabolism (ectomorph energy), Surplus fits a busy schedule. Weigh in, glance at your shortfall, tick your meals — done in under a minute a day.

Surplus Pro (optional upgrade)

- AI Meal Generator — instantly builds a meal plan + grocery list to hit your daily calorie and protein target
- Allergen filtering on every generated meal

Yours to keep

Optional sign-in to back up and sync across devices (Apple, Google, or email). In-app account deletion and data export available anytime — your data, your call.

Stop spinning your wheels. Eat enough, track less, and finally gain the lean muscle you've been chasing.

Surplus is a fitness and nutrition tracking tool, not medical advice. If you are under 18 or underweight, talk to a healthcare professional before starting a bulk.
