For people on GLP-1
This one tells you what to eat.
On Ozempic, Wegovy or Mounjaro your appetite collapses — and part of the weight you lose comes out of muscle. Mealens works out your protein target from your weight, then names the food that closes the gap for the fewest calories.
45 g left. 150 g of grilled chicken breast closes it for 248 kcal — the cheapest way to get there.
The medication does that job. The problem is what comes off with it: without enough protein, a large share of the loss is lean tissue — and that’s the part you don’t get back easily.
That’s the whole difficulty. You don’t need an app to tell you you’re short — you can feel it. You need to know what fits in the little room you have left.
Your weight and your intention set the target. Weigh in again and Mealens offers to move it — a goal set once stops fitting after 12 kg.
Not “45 g to go”. The actual food: how much of it, how many calories, and whether it closes the gap on its own. Variety is enforced — two protein powders aren't two options.
Type “2 eggs and whole wheat bread”. It reads the phrase, shows exactly what it understood, and logs both when you confirm. Nothing is guessed silently.
Dose, day, injection site and rotation. The streak counts cycles, not days — a weekly medication doesn't break a streak on a Tuesday.
Your weight, your meals and your medication never leave the device. There is no account, no server and no sign-up — because nothing is uploaded, there is nothing to leak. The only thing that leaves is your purchase, handled by Apple.
It also means it works with no signal, and that deleting the app deletes the data with it.

Logging your food is the habit, so it stays free. Pro is for looking back: the full history, the trend, the streak.
Because appetite drops fast and total intake falls with it. When protein falls too, a meaningful share of the weight you lose is lean tissue rather than fat — and that part is hard to rebuild. Mealens sets a target from your weight and helps you hit it on the days you barely feel like eating.
Most apps tell you how much you're missing. Mealens tells you what to eat: it names a specific food, the amount, and what it costs you in calories, choosing whatever closes your gap for the least. When you have no appetite, a diagnosis without a prescription isn't useful.
Yes. You can log your dose, the day, the injection site and the rotation alongside your food. The streak counts treatment cycles rather than calendar days, so a weekly medication doesn't break your streak mid-week. Mealens is not a medical device and gives no medical advice.
No. Your weight, meals and doses stay on your iPhone. There's no account, no sign-up and no server, so there's nothing to leak — and the app works with no signal. The only thing that leaves the device is your purchase, handled by Apple. Deleting the app deletes the data with it.
Search a food and tap it, or type the whole meal in one line — "2 eggs and whole wheat bread". Mealens reads the phrase and shows exactly what it understood, food by food with the grams, before anything is logged. Nothing gets added silently.
Logging your food, your protein goal, the gap closer, dose tracking and the last 7 days are free with no time limit. Pro adds memory — your full history, the weight trend and dose streak over time, and the shareable milestone card — for $4.99 a week or $39.99 a year. Prices are adjusted per country.
iPhone, via the App Store. It's available in English and Spanish, and picks whichever your phone is set to.
