A free buy-back calculator that converts food calories into the physical activity required to offset them. Enter the kcal you ate and your bodyweight; the tool returns the equivalent minutes of walking, rucking, standing, stair-climbing, and other common buy-back activities, with MET values pulled from the Compendium of Physical Activities. Unlike pace-of-eating shame tools, this one frames the buy-back as agency: you ate the slice — here are five honest options for getting back to your target. Renders alongside the formula and citations.
Free restaurant meal calorie estimator: pick a chain (Chipotle, Chick-fil-A, Panera, Olive Garden, etc.), pick an item, and start from the posted FDA-required menu calories — then add a practical prep buffer because real-world plates are heavier than the lab plate. Once you have the adjusted number, the tool converts the meal into body-weight-adjusted buy-back minutes (walking, rucking, standing) so the cost is something concrete instead of a guilt-trip. Same engine as the CalBurndown app.
