Healthy Versions of Meals? I Took Photos of Everything I Ate for 7 Days — Here’s How AI Turned it Healthy
Eating healthy sounds simple… until real life happens and you don’t seem to find the healthy versions of meals… BUT, you still find restaurants, cravings, social meals, lack of time — and suddenly you’re eating things you didn’t plan, and counting calories feels exhausting. This is what lead me to test something different.
So for one week, I did something simple to see what would happen:
I took photos of everything I ate. YES, everything.
No calorie counting.
No tracking apps.
No food scale.
Instead, I let AI analyze each meal and suggest healthy versions of meals that I enjoy, while keeping the essence of the dish so that it would actually satisfy my cravings.
Here’s exactly what happened — and why this approach feels radically more sustainable.
Why I Didn’t Want Another “Diet Week”
I’ve tried it all:
- Macro tracking
- Meal prep Sundays
- “Clean eating” rules
- Apps that make you log every ingredient
- Every nutrition coach I could pay for
They work… until they don’t. And that’s when things start going downhill.
The problem isn’t knowledge.
It’s friction. That friction that makes a really easy task look almost impossible.
When eating healthy feels like homework, consistency dies. So that’s what inspired the idea behind Remy AI — and this experiment was the first real test. (spoiler alert: successful test!)
The Rules of the Experiment
For 7 days, I followed three simple rules:
- 📸 Take a photo of every meal I ate (home or restaurant)
- ❌ No calorie tracking (not even with AI or “make it easy” apps)
- 🤖 Let AI suggest a healthier version of that exact dish
And I expected…
Not a “diet alternative.”
Not a random salad.
Realistic, delicious, healthy versions of meals I actually ate.
What I Ate (And What AI Did With It)
🍝 Day 1: Creamy Pasta at a Restaurant

Instead of telling me to “avoid it,” the AI suggested:
- Same dish
- Lean protein
- Lighter sauce base
- Balanced portion adjustments
Result:
✔️ Still creamy
✔️ Still comforting
✔️ ~40% fewer calories
🍔 Day 3: Burger & Fries


AI didn’t remove the burger.
It suggested:
- Protein-forward patty
- Smarter bun choice
- Crispy potato alternative cooked differently
Result:
✔️ Same satisfaction
✔️ Less heaviness
✔️ No guilt
🍕 Day 6: Pizza Night


No “just eat salad” nonsense.
AI focused on:
- Ingredient swaps
- Portion logic
- Protein balance
Result:
✔️ Pizza still felt like pizza
✔️ No post-meal crash
The Biggest Lesson: Healthy Eating Isn’t About Restriction
This week made something very clear:
The best healthy plan is the one that adapts to your life — not the other way around.
Instead of forcing discipline, AI reduced decisions.
Instead of rules, it offered options.
Instead of guilt, it gave clarity.
And that’s exactly what Remy AI is built to do, a sustainable way of eating healthy versions of meals we usually eat and enjoy.
