Show HN: I quit MyNetDiary after 3 years of popups and built a calorie tracker

After three years of hitting the same upgrade popup every time I opened MyNetDiary just to log lunch, I finally gave up searching for an alternative and built one myself.

The whole thing is a single HTML file. No server, no account, no login, no cloud. Data lives on your device only. You open it in a browser, bookmark it, and it works — offline, forever.

The feature I'm most proud of is real-time pacing: it knows your eating window, the current time, and how much you've consumed, and tells you whether you're actually on track — not just what your total is.

Free trial, no signup required: calories.today/app.html

Built this for myself after losing weight and just wanting to maintain without an app trying to sell me something every day. If that sounds familiar, give the trial a shot.
