Indian Meal Planner — macro-accurate plans built around real food
Most diet plans fail in Indian kitchens because they assume chicken breast and oats. Fitholae's Meal Planner works with dal, paneer, curd, roti, rice, idli and sabzi, then balances them to the calories and protein you actually need.
Open the Meal PlannerWhat the meal planner produces
Enter your calorie target, protein target, dietary preference and regional cuisine and you receive a full day of eating: breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner with portion sizes, per-meal macros and a consolidated grocery list.
Plans respect vegetarian, eggetarian, non-vegetarian and Jain constraints, and can be regenerated until the food fits your routine.
- Per-meal calories, protein, carbs and fat
- Household portions (katori, roti, glass) not lab grams
- Grocery list grouped for one shop
- Swap suggestions for repeat meals
Hitting protein on an Indian diet
Protein is the hardest macro for most Indian eaters. The planner leans on curd, paneer, tofu, soya, eggs, dals combined with cereals, and whey where you allow it, so plans commonly reach 1.6 g per kg bodyweight without feeling foreign.
If a target is unrealistic for your preference, the planner tells you rather than silently inventing food you would never cook.
Calories, deficits and surpluses
For fat loss, a deficit of roughly 15–20% below maintenance keeps hunger and training quality manageable. For muscle gain, a small surplus of 5–10% is enough for most people. The planner takes whatever number you set, so use the Fitness Passport to keep your maintenance estimate current as your weight changes.
Frequently asked questions
Does the meal planner support vegetarian and Jain diets?
Yes. Choose vegetarian, eggetarian, non-vegetarian or Jain and every meal in the plan respects that constraint, including the grocery list.
Can I set my own calories and protein?
Yes. You control the calorie and protein targets, and the planner distributes them across four meals with realistic Indian portions.
Is the meal planner free to use?
Yes, meal plan generation is included free with a Fitholae account.
Is this a substitute for a dietitian?
No. It is an educational planning tool. For clinical conditions such as diabetes, PCOS, kidney disease or pregnancy, work with a registered dietitian.
