Almost a year in with carbon and down 50% of my old self 166 lbs and counting over 22 months. Feeling great and so thankful for this app ❤️

Beth Albert

I have been using the app for almost a year and a half. It helps me stay accountable with my calories and protein. I have formed an accountability group with my friends and we screenshot and keep each other in check. It is awesome!

Liz Pineda

Started Carbon March 28 in the headspace yo stay consistent. Down 20 lbs. 170lbs to 150 lbs. Goal this cut is 145 lbs. Plan on staying on Carbon for a slow reverse. Couldn’t have done it without Carbon. I tried lol

Josh Emery

Started at 260 and got stuck at 235 for a bit, with a goal of getting back in the 200’s. A new guy at work who is in bodybuilding talked to me about Macros and advised using the Carbon app. We ate breakfast together on a trip and he dove in depth about the app so I decided to try it. Since April, I’m down to 211 and almost hitting my goal. The two biggest things I learned when starting tracking was I didn’t eat near as much protein as I thought I did and I also ate way more fat than I thought I did. My mental math was not adding up correctly. Carbon made it easy to illuminate things for me so I could start attacking my goal.
