Move your Lose It! history into TrainRec

Lose It! lets you download all of your data from its website in one go. Download it, then hand the files to your assistant, which brings your food log and weight history into TrainRec.

How it gets in

Best results: your assistant. A connected assistant reads any export whole, fixes dates and units as it goes, and can bring in food and measurements, not just workouts. Coach, the chat built into TrainRec, is best for telling it what you did and for small pasted pieces. The other routes are there when you'd rather not involve either.

  • Through your assistantConnect or CoachBest results

    Export the file from Lose It!, attach it in your connected assistant's chat (Claude today) and say "Import this into TrainRec". It reads the whole file, sorts out odd dates, units and exercise names, and moves everything in with TrainRec's import tools, as one batch you can undo in one tap. With Coach, the chat built into TrainRec, describe what you did ("log my last two weeks: bench 3x5 at 185 on Monday...") or paste a small piece of the export, up to about a couple of weeks at a time. If something looks off afterward, just say so and it fixes it.

Good to know

  • It's all or nothing. There's no way to export only part of your history.
  • The app's email reports are summaries, not the full data. Use the web download.

Why I moved my food log, from the person who built TrainRec

My own views as a longtime user, not a claim by TrainRec. I make TrainRec, so I’m not neutral.

I’ve used Lose It and other calorie counters for over 10 years. What wore me down in Lose It was looking things up: one food came back as many entries, added by different people, each with different numbers, and I never knew which one was right. I also used Happy Scale for its weight predictions. I wanted all of it in one place that my AI assistant could help me keep, so that’s what TrainRec does. You say what you ate and your assistant logs it. Your weigh-ins show when you’ll reach your goal weight.

Your Lose It history can come with you.
