BiteBop plans a full week of meals around your goal, forecasts what you'll actually weigh, and turns the whole week's groceries into an Instacart order in one tap. Free, with no subscription and no card. TELL US YOUR GOAL Pick lose, maintain, gain or recomp, set your target weight, and BiteBop builds your daily calories and protein from it, the same starting point a dietitian would use. A WEEK OF MEALS, WRITTEN FOR YOU Every breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack is designed around your calories, the foods and cuisines you love, and anything you avoid. Breakfast is breakfast, dinner is dinner. Watch all 28 meals fill in as your week is built. Don't like a meal? Swap it, and BiteBop learns your taste. ALLERGIES AND DIETS, ENFORCED Tell BiteBop your allergies and it checks every ingredient, not just the name of the dish: Shellfish rules out shrimp and crab, Dairy rules out cheese and butter, Gluten rules out flour and soy sauce. Vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, halal and kosher are enforced the same way, and strict diets still get a full week. CALORIES YOU CAN TRUST Every ingredient is checked against USDA FoodData Central, so the numbers behind your plan are real, not guesses. SEE WHERE YOU'RE HEADING Log your weight and watch an honest forecast, with a confidence band rather than a promise, of where you'll be in six months or a year, and when you'll reach your goal. GROCERIES IN ONE TAP Your week becomes one consolidated shopping list, grouped by aisle. Add anything else you need, from avocados to coffee, take off what you already have, then watch it pack into Instacart ready to check out. When you're back, BiteBop asks if the order went through so next week's plan knows what's in your kitchen. MADE BY ONE PERSON WHO USES IT BiteBop is built by Chandan Mishra in the Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania. Questions and ideas go straight to the founder. BiteBop is not medical advice. Consult a physician before changing your diet.
