Why people stay
Three things you can check
before you trust us.
Chicken rice, laksa, char kway teow, your kopitiam order: Singapore dishes carry the Health Promotion Board's laboratory-analysed values, licensed to LeanerTogether, counted the way HPB measured them. And every single food carries a tip telling you what to order instead, not just a calorie number.

Singapore food, measured in a lab. Not guessed.
LeanerTogether is licensed to use the Health Promotion Board's Food & Nutrient Database, Singapore's official nutrition reference. When you photograph or search a local dish, the calories, protein, sodium, sugar and saturated fat come from HPB's laboratory-analysed values.
Point. Snap. Logged.
Still typing "chicken rice no skin less rice" into a food tracker? Stop. Point your camera at the plate, tap once, and the app identifies the dish and fills in the calories and macros instantly. Laksa, char kway teow, bibimbap, ramen, pizza. It handles them all.
And for Singapore food, the numbers now come from the source itself: every scan and search checks the Health Promotion Board's official Food & Nutrient Database, licensed to LeanerTogether, with laboratory-analysed values for local dishes and drinks, right down to sodium, sugar and saturated fat. Your char kway teow is counted the way HPB measured it, not the way an AI guessed it.
Got a packaged snack? Use Label Scan to read the nutrition label, or just scan the barcode and the app pulls the product's calories and macros straight from Open Food Facts, the global open food database. Or search 43,100+ foods worldwide, each with a coach tip so you know not just what you ate, but what to do about it.
Research shows people who log their food consistently lose more weight and keep it off. The only catch has always been that logging is a chore. That is exactly what the scan removes.
Because the best food log is the one you actually use, and this one takes five seconds.

It started with one person's story. Now it is helping others change theirs.
LeanerTogether began with my own struggle to understand food, lose weight and build habits that would last. I once genuinely thought cold food contained fewer calories: that was how little I understood, and why I know how confusing getting healthy can feel.
Now, I use the same simple approach to help others: no fancy diets, no shortcuts and no pressure to be perfect. Just practical changes that fit real life, repeated consistently until they become part of who you are.
Here is the other honest truth most fitness apps will never tell you: you do not need a calorie tracker forever. Track your food for a few weeks and the numbers start to stick. You will know that char kway teow carries more calories than sliced fish soup without opening any app. Awareness gradually becomes instinct. Once you are leaner, it is easier to stay lean. It becomes your natural state. That is the whole goal.
"Learn it, live it, and tell a friend. That is the opposite of every app trying to lock you into a subscription. It is also why this one is free, and why it is a movement."
Built for your food, with a real coach in your corner. The only app that reads a hawker menu and tells you exactly what to order for your goal.

Coach Chin Hock's real transformation
25 years of guessing. Then everything changed at 47.
At 22% body fat, eating hawker food every day, I spent 25 years trying to figure out how to be leaner without giving up the food I loved. Every app I tried was too complicated, too Western, or locked the useful parts behind a paywall. At 46, I finally stopped guessing and learned to track what I actually ate. One year later, at 47, I stood on a competition stage.
That is why I know this works. Not because I read it in a textbook. Because I lived it. On hawker food, with a busy schedule, no personal trainer, no special diet. I am the living proof, and this app is built around exactly what worked for me.
I did not build this just for an app. Once you become leaner, it gets easier to stay lean. It becomes your natural state. And when you see it happen, you tell someone. That is a movement, and you are part of it.

Real results · June 2026 health screening
47 years old. Hawker food every day.
Here's my health screening.
Not a filtered photo. My actual lab results, from the same screening you do. This is what tracking honestly, hitting protein, and training regularly does on the inside.
Straight from my lab report, June 2026. Good cholesterol 87 where typical is 40 to 59, liver clean, urine clean.
These are Chin Hock's personal screening results, shared as his own story. They are not a promise of medical outcomes, and LeanerTogether does not provide medical advice. Individual results vary.
Measured · 31 July 2026 · body composition scan
48 now. This is what the
machine says.
Blood tests show what is happening inside. This shows what the food actually built. Same hawker food, same tracking, one year later.
The actual printout from the scan, with the clinic ID blacked out. Nothing else on it has been touched.
About this scan: it was taken on an InBody 380, which measures body composition by passing a small electrical current through the body. Readings from this method are not directly comparable with other methods such as DEXA or skinfold callipers, so this 11.9% should be read on its own terms and not as a continuation of the 15% from competition prep at 47. Body composition also shifts with hydration and time of day. InBody is a trademark of InBody Co., Ltd., which has no involvement with LeanerTogether. These are Chin Hock's personal results, shared as his own story, not a promise of outcomes and not medical advice. Individual results vary.
Coach Chin Hock
reading your data
Sarah, weight's been flat 5 days and protein is about 15g short every day. Before I say anything, what does the rest of today look like for meals?
Dinner at the kopitiam, probably chicken rice.
Coach Chin Hock
Good. Ask for less rice, double the chicken portion. That closes the protein gap and keeps calories in range. Do you usually finish the whole plate or leave some?
Mindset & Fitness Coaching
Not the same generic tips for everyone. LeanerTogether reads your real data: your weight trend, calorie and protein adherence, your streak and your score. Then Coach Chin Hock gives you the one insight that matters for you right now.
Plateauing? It adjusts. Protein slipping? It catches it. Crushing it? It levels you up. The advice progresses as you do, exactly like a real coach who's been watching.
Backed by a 30-day mindset curriculum and real nutrition science, so you finally understand why, and never need another diet.
Slip-Up Reset Protocol
You had a bad day. Skipped the gym, ate everything in sight, told yourself you'd restart Monday. Don't. Open the app and the Reset Protocol meets you exactly where you are.
- 💬Coach asks what happened before telling you what to do. Understanding first.
- 🎯Once it knows the trigger, the steps are built around that exact situation.
- 🔥It knows your streak and uses it. "23 days doesn't disappear in one night."
Reset Protocol
Adapts to youHey Sarah. You've shown up 23 days straight. One slip doesn't erase that. It proves you're human, not that you've failed.
What threw you off today?
First, just breathe. The panic you're feeling is stress, and stress drives the next binge. Five slow breaths with me.
Put it in perspective. You're ~300 cal over your 1,500 target today. Across your week, that's a rounding error, not a relapse.
Make your next meal protein-first. A palm-sized portion before the carbs. No punishing, no skipping. Back in your body's corner.
Coach Chin Hock· personal messageSarah, 23 days of showing up does not disappear in one night. What actually happened? Tell me what triggered it and we will build around exactly that.
Not just a calorie tracker
The A.B.S Framework
Knowing your chicken rice was 640 calories is the easy part. What to do at dinner, after a bad week, when you are tired and it is 11pm, that is the part nobody builds. So we built it. Every screen in this app runs on one coaching framework: Awareness, Beliefs, Systems.
It comes from more than 25 years of training and learning about human behaviour: Commando training, certification as a fitness instructor, Coach Chin Hock's own physical transformation, more than a thousand people taught face to face, and seeing repeatedly what happens when real people try something difficult, fail, restart and eventually change.
Awareness
Understand your real patterns. Body stats, hidden habits, stress triggers, lifestyle mapping. Clarity before change.
Beliefs
Rewire what holds you back. From "I'm too old" to "I live lean naturally." Identity shift that sticks.
Systems
K.I.S.S structures that don't need willpower. Reset protocols. Weekly check-ins. Habits over heroics.
Everything in one place
No juggling 5 apps. No spreadsheets. No excuses.
Hawker Menu Intelligence
Standing at a hawker stall, unsure what to order? Snap the menu, even a multi-page one, and Coach Chin Hock tells you what to pick for your goal and the calories and protein you have left for the day. Not "eat healthy", but "the sliced fish soup closes your protein gap for 280 cal". Most calorie apps can't make sense of a hawker menu. This one was built for it.
Worldwide Food Database
Chicken rice, laksa, pho, pad thai, adobo, croissants, protein bars, your supermarket snacks. 43,100+ foods and growing, from hawker and home dishes across ASEAN to packaged items worldwide, with your coach telling you what to pick.
Transformation Preview
See your goal body before you've lost a single kilogram. Upload one photo. The app builds a visualisation of the leaner, fitter you, matched to your actual target weight. Real face. Real goal. Every Monday it shows up on your screen.
Plan Your Meals Ahead
Plan tomorrow, or the whole week, before it even starts. Build each day to your calorie target with hawker dishes and your own foods, then just tap "Ate this" when the time comes and it logs itself. The feature other apps lock behind a paid plan, here it is free.
Food, Label, Barcode and Menu Scan
Four ways to use your camera. Snap your meal and the app identifies the dish and fills in the calories and macros. Snap a packaged nutrition label and it reads the exact per-serving numbers straight off the pack. Scan a barcode and it pulls the product from Open Food Facts, the global open food database. Or snap a whole hawker menu, even several pages, and get told exactly what to order for your goal, something most calorie apps just don't do. No typing. No searching. No skipped entries.
AI Coach, trained by Chin Hock
Stress eating at 11pm. Stuck at the hawker. Lost after a bad week. Just type it. An AI coach trained on Coach Chin Hock's method responds instantly, any time, with advice built around your goals.
Accountability Score
Did you actually show up today? Your daily 0 to 100 score tracks five habits, water, protein, movement, sleep and your daily lesson, and gives you one honest number. No hiding from it. No fooling yourself. And when real life hits (a wedding, a work trip, a rough week), use a Freeze Token, designed for the real world, to pause your streak without losing your progress.
Weight Trend Dashboard
Weighed yourself and panicked? One heavy meal, one bad night's sleep, and the scale lies. Your 7-day rolling average cuts through the noise and shows you what's actually happening to your body. Log your weight, get a personalised comment from Coach Chin Hock, and watch the trend, not the number.
Slip-Up Reset Protocol
You had a bad day. Skipped the gym, ate everything in sight, told yourself you'd restart Monday. Don't. Open the app now, and the Reset Protocol walks you through your next step. No lecture, no guilt, just a clear path back on track.
A coach the nation has heard from
Coach Chin Hock has been featured on Channel News Asia, The Straits Times, Zaobao and several other media outlets, and is the published author of "It's Ok To Be Average: You Can Still Lead a Purposeful Life."
This isn't a faceless app or an anonymous algorithm. It's a real Singaporean coach: a parent, an author, a Book of Records holder, who transformed his own body at 47 and now puts that exact method in your hands.
Meet Coach Chin Hock
After 25 years of chasing abs by guessing, at 47 he finally dropped from 22% to 11.9% by tracking what he ate. On hawker food. No personal trainer. No special diet. Every coaching message, food tip, and reset protocol in this app comes directly from what worked on his own body, not a theory.
He tried the other apps. They were either complicated or kept the useful parts behind a paywall. So he built this one and made it free. He wants it to be more than an app. One person getting leaner makes it easier for the people around them to do the same, and when it happens to you, he hopes you tell someone.
You don't spend your best years figuring out what works after 40. He already did that part.
"I was 47 when I competed. Hawker food. Busy life. No excuses. I am the living proof. The only question is whether you decide to."
What people are saying
Real stories from real people. See how LeanerTogether has helped them build healthier habits and achieve their goals.
“1 kg less, Yahoo... Intentionally choosing my food for all meals, no fried items n walk more after each meal lo”
“I like that the app shows my carbs, protein, and fat at a glance, making it easy to understand what I am eating. I was also surprised by how fast the AI recognised my food.”
“What I like about LeanerTogether is that it tailors to local food preferences, achieving approximately 90% accuracy in food type recognition in my scans. It can break down the estimated calories, protein, and fat content of the food consumed which I find it useful. An inspiring coach, Chin Hock speaks honestly and straightforwardly. Overall, my workout experience with him is enjoyable and feels welcoming rather than intimidating.”
“The LeanerTogether app is easy to use and has a clean, intuitive interface. I especially like the food scanning feature which is fast and makes meal logging easy. What I appreciate most is that Chin Hock does not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. He took the time to understand my daily routine, commitments, and lifestyle before suggesting changes, so his advice felt practical and achievable. I felt supported rather than pressured, and I am more confident that I can achieve my goals step by step.”
“The onboarding process was smooth. Practical tips were given to achieve the daily protein goals. It is able to nudge me to have more protein foods and drink more water. The app was easy to use overall... I also find that the app has a power to keep motivating you. I love the encouraging quotes and the progress tracking part which emphasised the effort that I have done.”
“The app helped me track my progress effectively. The motivational messages from the coach were very encouraging and kept me motivated throughout the journey... It was very useful and helped me stay focused on my goals. I sometimes forgot to update my progress. A reminder or notification feature will be helpful.”
