Overview

MyFitnessPal in ChatGPT lets you describe your goals (cut 300 calories, hit 150g protein, vegetarian week) and get meal plans plus the option to log against your existing MyFitnessPal account. The big win is the natural-language interface for what's normally a tedious tap-tap-tap workflow inside the app.
