After my annual checkup showed LDL 4.4 mmol/L (170 mg/dL) and triglycerides 2.0 mmol/L at 33, I tried tracking with ChatGPT (lost data when context got too big), then spreadsheets (too tedious).

Built a simple tracker focused on cholesterol. Log meals, see lipid breakdown, track trends. I believe snacks and sugar were my main issue.

Started January 1st, already lost 3kg. Same breakfast daily (psyllium, oats, chia, skyr, whey, berries), cut sugar from daily to once per week.

Free during beta. Looking for feedback on whether strict diet cutting or 80/20 approach is more sustainable long-term.
