Show HN: Speech to Calorie Tracker

https://github.com/crocsarecool/nutrition-app

I was tempted by Cal AI, but noticed the camera action was a bit awkward and high effort for me, as someone who doesn't take a lot of photos and also remembers to log stuff after I've already eaten it.

So I built a simple app to talk to your calorie note taker, who puts a simple MD diary and also consults with you on your diet strategy.

I simply eat and then tell this app what I ate, it uses Claude through a BYOK and does the rest.

Would love any thoughts or ideas :)

Looks good, a different perspective/option for the user that doesn't wanna bloat their mobile with food pics.

Good luck
