Lose weight and win A$1,000 every month, just for hitting your daily calorie and step goals. CalCut is the fat loss app built on simplicity. No manual searching. No guilt. No getting overwhelmed. Just two daily rules, and when you hit both, your screen turns green. That's a Perfect Day. THE TWO RULES 1. Stay in a calorie deficit — we calculate your personal target. 2. Hit your daily step goal — set to fit your life. Hit both, day after day, and the weight comes off. That's the whole method. THE CALCUT MONTHLY A$1,000 every month to whoever's the most consistent. Most points for hitting your two daily rules wins. Each day you earn 2 points for your steps, 2 for your calories, 8 for a Perfect Day and double points on weekends. Points are for hitting the rules, never for weight lost. No draw and no luck: the most points wins, and an exact tie splits the prize. Open to subscribers aged 18+ in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Canada (except Quebec) and the US (some states excluded). Opt in inside the app. Full terms: calcut.com.au/monthly-terms. Apple is not a sponsor of the Monthly and is not involved in it. A SCOREBOARD, NOT A JOURNAL Your day lives on one screen. Miss your goals and it's orange. Hit them and it flips to green. That simple colour switch is the most satisfying part of your day — and the reason people stay consistent with CalCut when every other app ended up deleted. BUILT FOR REAL PEOPLE CalCut is for anyone who's tried the complicated apps and quit. If you've felt overwhelmed by nutrition trackers that demand you weigh every grain of rice, this is the opposite. Log a meal in seconds by describing it, scanning a barcode, or snapping a photo. WHAT YOU GET - A personalised calorie deficit target (TDEE-based) - A daily step goal that syncs automatically - Fast food logging: describe, scan, or photograph - Progress photos and weight trends that show the change - A clean daily scoreboard that keeps you accountable PLUS EXTRAS (Sent via email within 24 hours) - Personalised Meal Plan - Fat Loss Cookbook - Takeaway Cheat Sheet - Budget Grocery Guide Two simple rules a day.
