The protocol
STEP_1
Photograph every meal
Before you eat it, you shoot it. A meal photo tracker beats a food diary: the camera records what actually landed on the plate, portion and all.
STEP_2
Log steps & weight
Screenshot your daily step count from any app or watch, log your morning weigh-in. The protocol auto-tunes your portions from the trend — no macro math, ever.
STEP_3
Prove it weekly
One progress photo, same spot, every week. The scale lies day to day. A ten-week photo strip doesn't.
→ Everything is checked against your plan. Tick every box, get shredded. That's the deal.
Why it works
No macro math
Your plan is fixed up front, and portions auto-adjust from your morning weigh-ins. There is nothing to calculate — only a daily fat loss checklist to execute. Simple plans survive week three.
A checklist, not a feed
No timeline, no influencers, no community tab you'll never open. Just your boxes — and a small crew who can see whether you finished your day. Quiet peer pressure, zero noise.
Photos don't negotiate
Typing "1 portion of pasta" is an estimate. A photo is evidence. Accountability is the whole mechanism — that's why coaching works, and why this works without a coach.
Prep is on the plan
Every Sunday: a 45-minute prep session with a generated grocery list and a container count. The week is cooked before it starts — decisions made once, not twenty-one times.
Free meals, planned
One free meal a week, scheduled by the protocol. Not a cheat — it's on the plan, so it costs zero guilt and needs no photo.
Reminders that push
Notifications fire when a box is still open, not when an algorithm wants engagement. Miss a meal photo and you'll hear about it.
Private by architecture
Meal photos and progress photos are stored locally on your phone. No account, no cloud, no one looking over your shoulder.

Questions
How is Simple Shred different from calorie counting apps?
Calorie apps make you the accountant. Simple Shred makes you accountable. Instead of typing numbers into a database, you photograph what you actually ate and the protocol checks it against your plan. There is nothing to fudge and nothing to forget.
Do I need to count macros or calories to lose fat?
No. Your plan is fixed up front: what you eat, how much you move, when you weigh in. After that the only job is executing the daily checklist. Consistency beats precision — a simple plan you follow every day outperforms a perfect plan you abandon in week two. → Photo diary vs calorie counting
How do meal photos help me stay consistent on a cut?
Knowing you have to photograph a meal before you eat it changes the decision in the moment. It is the same mechanism as a coach checking your food log — external accountability — without paying for a coach. The camera does not negotiate.
Do my meal photos and progress photos get uploaded anywhere?
No. Your photos, step screenshots and check-ins are stored locally on your phone. There is no account, no cloud sync and no feed. Progress photos in a fat loss app are private — they stay that way.
Which step counter does it work with?
Any of them. You screenshot your daily step count from whatever you already use — Apple Health, Google Fit, Samsung Health, a Garmin or your watch — and attach it to the checklist. No integrations to break, no permissions to grant.
What does Simple Shred cost?
Simple Shred is in early access, so right now the full ten-week protocol is free — no card, no trial clock. When early access ends it becomes a subscription: €7.99 per month or €49.99 per year (about €4.17 a month), starting with a 7-day free trial you can cancel any time in your App Store or Google Play account settings. Prices are in euros; your store shows your local price. → Manage or cancel your subscription
How do I stay consistent on a cut when motivation drops?
You stop relying on motivation. Simple Shred replaces it with a routine: a short daily checklist, reminders that actually push, and a weekly progress photo that shows you the trend even when the scale is noisy. Ticking every box today is the whole job. → How to stay consistent on a cut
Can I still have a cheat meal?
Better: a free meal, planned by the protocol. Once a week you eat whatever you want — no photo required. Because it is scheduled, it is part of the plan instead of a failure of it, which is what keeps a ten-week cut sustainable. → Free meal vs cheat meal
