“I named my scale Harold. At first, Harold used to yell at me with numbers I did not want to see. Now, he whispers encouragement, saying, ‘Nice job, Flower.’ I owe that shift to My Slim Tools. The Macro Split Calculator became my cosmic food compass, showing me how to balance meals in a way that feels doable, not restrictive. Even broccoli no longer scares me. Harold and I are healing — together.”– Flower, California
Editorial Comment
Flower’s testimonial illustrates the power of structured tools in reshaping both habits and mindset. Research consistently shows that using macronutrient-based planning not only improves diet quality but also enhances adherence and satisfaction, making long-term weight management more achievable. 2 Beyond numbers on the scale, their story reflects the psychological importance of creating positive associations with food, accountability, and self-monitoring — a strategy that has been proven effective in sustaining healthy weight loss. 1

John is the founder of MySlimTools — part coder, part calorie nerd, and full-time fan of simple, no-fluff weight loss tools. With a background in web development and a lifelong interest in fitness, John built this site to answer the age-old question: “How many calories should I actually be eating?”
When he’s not optimizing PHP code or fine-tuning a calculator, you can find him lifting weights, dodging carbs, or pretending broccoli tastes like fries — and he’s almost convinced (but cauliflower is still playing a different sport).
His motto? “If it’s not simple, it won’t stick — whether it’s code or a diet.”
