THE PLAIT GUIDE
Meal planning and food logging are different jobs
Plait creates weighed meal plans from a stated goal and an estimated calorie target. A detailed food diary is a different workflow, and a planned meal is not proof of what you ate.
What Plait records
You can mark a planned meal as eaten or skipped. Unlogged meals remain unlogged. This supports a practical view of recorded plan adherence, but it is not a complete nutritional record of snacks, changed portions or meals outside the plan.
What the meal tools add
Shopping & prep compiles the listed ingredients for selected days and serving counts. A prepared-portion checkmark does not mark a meal eaten. The next-meal card uses the meal log to point you toward the next unrecorded planned meal without prescribing an eating time.
Choose the workflow you need
If you need an extensive branded-food database, barcode scanning or detailed tracking of everything you consume, evaluate those features in the current documentation of the food-logging product you are considering. Plait’s core workflow is a plan you can inspect, shop for and prepare, with wearable context alongside it. Product features and prices should be checked on the official sites before choosing a paid service.
