TrueScale - Diet & Water Weight Insights

Analyze your Cronometer data for fat loss, water weight estimates, and advanced insights.

WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 1.8 • AM/PM Weight Logging: Choose between AM (fasted) and PM weigh-ins to prevent the algorithm from prematurely calculating against a day that is still in progress. • Calculation & Sync Enhancements: Hardened edge-case formulas and improved cache synchronization. A Note From the Developer: I actively check my email and love hearing from users. If you run into bugs of any kind or have a feature idea you would love to see, please reach out directly at wittdev.support@gmail.com. When reporting an error, the more detail you can provide, the faster I can track it down and deploy a fix. I am always looking for honest feedback—what you like, what you don't, and what would make this tool better for your daily routine. Thank you for using TrueScale! As someone who has been through the grind of long-term dieting, I know the mental struggle is real. Keep fighting, trust the process, and stay consistent! Stop letting daily scale fluctuations derail your motivation. TrueScale separates acute water weight swings from genuine fat and muscle changes using validated human biokinetic science. ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ WHY THE BATHROOM SCALE LIES TO YOU ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ Have you ever strictly dieted for four days only to wake up and see the scale jump up 2.5 pounds? Or eaten a single restaurant meal and suddenly "gained" 3 pounds overnight? Biologically, gaining 3 pounds of adipose fat overnight from an extra 1,000 calories is a thermodynamic impossibility (requiring an unburned surplus of over +10,500 kcal). What you are seeing is acute fluid retention: • Glycogen Hydration: Every single gram of stored liver and muscle glycogen binds 3 to 4 grams of water (Olsson & Saltin; Fernandez-Elias). • Sodium-Potassium Osmolality: High dietary sodium suppresses renal aldosterone and triggers acute extracellular fluid retention (He & MacGregor). • Resistance Training Edema: Hard lifting causes microscopic muscle microtrauma and cellular swelling that can trap 2 to 4 pounds of fluid for up to 96 hours (Damas et al.). • Hormonal Fluid Shifts: Aldosterone-progesterone cross-talk during the late luteal phase shifts transient water weight (Stachenfeld). • Digestive Bolus: The physical mass of food and liquid currently traveling through the digestive tract. TrueScale models these physiological phenomena dynamically so you know exactly what your body is doing, free from scale anxiety. ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ KEY FEATURES ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ ⚖️ TRUE DRY WEIGHT vs. ESTIMATED SCALE WEIGHT See your true, solid tissue mass (dry fat + muscle mass) plotted clearly alongside what your physical bathroom scale is reading today. 💧 4-FACTOR WATER SHIFT BREAKDOWN Get an exact breakdown of the fluid shifts affecting your body: Glycogen Hydration Delta Sodium / Potassium Osmotic Shift Exercise-Induced Muscular Edema Menstrual Phase Fluid Retention 🔬 PEER-REVIEWED BIOKINETIC PARTITIONING Built on validated metabolic science: Forbes (1987) non-linear P-ratio differential equations, Hall (2011) macronutrient energy densities, and Alpert (2005) fat mobilization limits. 🏋️ RESISTANCE TRAINING EDEMA TRACKER & WORKOUT CALENDAR Log your workouts (De-load, Typical Session, Hypertrophy to Failure, Strength) with a single tap to track muscular microtrauma and predict water retention curves. 📐 US NAVY CIRCUMFERENCE BODY FAT CALCULATOR Calculate your exact body fat percentage using standard US Navy tape equations (neck, waist, hip, and height) in inches or centimeters, with instant biokinetic baseline injection. 📅 CUSTOM TIMEFRAME & CALENDAR ANALYSIS Analyze custom date ranges to isolate training blocks, contest preps, or diet phases. 🔒 100% PRIVATE & ON-DEVICE Your private nutrition logs and biometrics NEVER leave your computer. TrueScale operates entirely client-side in your local browser storage (chrome.storage.local). No external tracking servers, no cloud databases, and no data harvesting. ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ PRICING & GRANDFATHERED LIFETIME BENEFIT ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ • FREE TIER: Core biokinetic analysis, true weight calculation, water weight shift breakdown, and 1-click Cronometer synchronization. • LIFETIME PRO UNLOCK ($15.99 ONE-TIME): Forbes muscle vs. fat partitioning, US Navy circumference calculator, custom BMR override, resistance training calendar, and custom date range analysis. ✨ NO MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTIONS: Pay once and own it forever. ✨ EARLY ADOPTER GUARANTEE: Purchasing Lifetime Access today automatically grandfathers you into free lifetime access for all upcoming platform integrations (MyFitnessPal, MacroFactor, LoseIt!) and the upcoming standalone Android mobile app at no extra charge. ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ HOW IT WORKS ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ Install TrueScale and open Settings & Sync.
