Your digital companion for evidence-based weight loss

We designed the CSIRO Total Wellbeing Diet app to support the behaviours that drive successful weight loss. The app brings together planning, tracking and daily task-setting—three habits shown to improve outcomes when practised consistently. By keeping these tools in one place, the app makes it easier to stay organised and maintain momentum throughout your program.

You are in full control of how you use the app. Follow your meal plan closely, adjust meals when needed or simply log your progress at the end of the day. The structure is there when you want it, and flexibility is available whenever life gets busy

Our research shows a clear pattern: members who use the app’s features regularly tend to achieve greater weight loss. This is because the app helps you practise the routines that support healthier choices, reinforce confidence and encourage long-term lifestyle change.

The CSIRO Total Wellbeing Diet app is exclusive to members and available on both Android and iPhone devices.

Create your own weekly menu with our meal planner

Your weekly menu can be as structured or as flexible as you prefer. Choose from more than 10 meal plans and personalise them to suit your taste and schedule. Whether you want every meal planned out or prefer to make daily changes, the app adapts to how you like to approach the program.

With the meal planner, you can:

  • View your full weekly meal plan at a glance
  • Swap meals to suit your preferences or timetable
  • Access detailed weight loss recipes directly from the app
  • Automatically generate shopping lists for simple grocery planning - for yourself or for the whole family. 

This flexibility helps you stay consistent while still enjoying the foods you love.

Track your weight loss progress

Self-monitoring is strongly linked to long-term weight loss and improvements in several health conditions. The CSIRO Total Wellbeing Diet app makes tracking simple, visual and accessible, helping you build awareness of your choices and progress from week to week.

In the tracking section, you can:

  • Log food using search or easy barcode scanning
  • Track your daily physical activity
  • Record your weight and monitor progress over time
  • Understand your eating patterns and macronutrient intake

Clear charts and summaries give you a realistic view of your habits, helping you make informed decisions as you move through the program.

  • Follow structured daily tasks such as logging meals, checking your weight and planning the week ahead
  • Tick off items as you complete them

These daily tasks support the behaviours associated with successful weight loss and help build long-lasting healthy habits.

With more than ten meal plan options and hundreds of recipes, the app allows you to personalise your plan while still following the core structure of the CSIRO Total Wellbeing Diet.

How does tracking help with weight loss?

The app makes this process simple through barcode scanning, food search, activity logging and clear progress charts.

Many members find My Journey especially helpful when starting the program, as it provides structure and guidance until daily habits become more familiar and automatic.
