Use a bot to log supplements and calories
One person used Grok Bot to keep track of supplement trials and daily calorie intake.
- What they did
- They set up Grok Bot as a personal helper for two ongoing tasks: testing supplements and logging calories. The same commenter also used Codex and OpenCode for coding, and OpenRouter on a pay-as-you-go plan to sample models such as Deepseek and GLM.
- How it went
- The source does not give any measured outcome from the supplement or calorie tracking. It does note that they disliked Hermes after several tries, and their first attempt with Rakazo was also disappointing.
- Tips
- If you want a similar setup, keep the agent focused on a narrow logbook job and ask for a regular summary. Be cautious about changing the tracking format or any paid plan without checking the cost first.
Try it yourself with Grok Bot
Act as my daily tracking assistant for [supplement experiment] and calorie intake. Each day, ask me what I took and ate, then record it in a running log with the date, item names, and estimated calories. Once a week, give me a brief summary of patterns and possible links, and pause to ask for my approval before you change the tracking method, export the log, or send anything to anyone.
