Setup is the short wizard you run the first time you open Loopa. It turns a few facts about you into your daily calorie and macro targets, your water goal, and the set of trackers you want. You can change any of it later in Settings.
General wellness tracking, not medical advice. Your targets are estimates. Talk to a professional before big changes.
Your plan updates as you type
A live "Your plan" card sits alongside the form and recalculates as you fill it in. It shows your estimated daily calorie target, your protein, carb, and fat split, your BMI, a suggested goal weight, and a projected goal date. Nothing is saved until you finish, so try different numbers and watch the plan move.
Units
Pick Imperial (pounds, feet and inches) or Metric (kilograms, centimeters). Every field and every figure across Loopa follows this choice, so weigh-ins, height, and water all read in your units.
About you
- Age and Sex. These tune your calorie estimate and your nutrient targets.
- Height. Enter feet and inches on imperial, or centimeters on metric.
Weight and goal
- Current weight: where you are today.
- Goal weight: where you want to be. A Use this button offers a suggested goal at a healthy BMI if you want a starting point.
- Starting weight (optional): if you have already made progress, set where you began so your charts tell the whole story.
See Weight tracking and BMI and body composition for how these feed your trend and progress.
Activity and goal pace
- Activity level: from Sedentary (desk job, little exercise) up through Lightly active, Moderately active, Very active, and Athlete. This sets how many calories you burn before exercise.
- Goal pace: how fast you want to change weight. A faster pace means a bigger daily calorie deficit. Loopa never sets your target below your BMR.
Diet
Your diet style sets your macro split. Choose from Keto, Paleo, Vegetarian, Vegan, Low carb, High protein, Low calorie, Mediterranean, DASH (heart and blood pressure), Heart-healthy, Low sodium, or Custom. Watch the protein, carb, and fat bars in Your plan change as you switch.
Under Fine-tune macros and water you can override the preset: set your own protein per pound of goal weight, a daily carb limit, and a water goal in ounces. Leave water blank for a sensible default based on your weight. Learn more in Macronutrients explained, Keto diet, and Mediterranean diet.
Allergies and foods you never eat
Add a hard safety list here. mobieusAI never suggests or includes these foods, even as minor ingredients, and flags them if you log them. The guard also matches common derivatives, so "milk" catches casein and whey. You can edit this list any time under Food preferences.
Choose your trackers
Turn on the trackers you want. The everyday ones (food, water, weight, and more) are on already. Blood glucose, INR, and Cycle stay off unless you opt in. The full set includes:
- Food and macros
- Vitals
- Blood glucose
- INR
- Measurements
- Activity
- Water
- Supplements and meds
- Goals
- Cycle
Only the trackers you enable show up in your menu and on your dashboard. Tap Finish setup and you are ready to log.
Changing things later
Everything here lives in Settings, grouped into Units, Profile and Body, Activity and Pace, Diet and Macros, Trackers, Food preferences (Favorites, Dislikes, and Never-eat), Daily reminders, access and consent, and your data export. The same live plan card recalculates as you edit, so you always see the effect before you save.
