Merge LoseIt and Garmin into one daily health dashboard with AI

A commenter describes a local desktop app the AI helped him write: a script runs daily to pull his LoseIt nutrition and Garmin workout data into a local database, and an MCP link lets the AI review each day in a small browser UI, give advice, and plan runs or swims toward his goal of losing 40 pounds.

How it works

  1. Script runs daily
  2. Pulls data from LoseIt and Garmin
  3. Parses it and saves to a local database
  4. MCP links the AI to the database
  5. Browser UI reviews the past day's nutrition and workouts
  6. The AI gives daily advice and helps plan runs or swims toward the 40 lb goal

Why it’s worth knowing

The AI sits on top of a homemade daily data pipeline from two unrelated fitness apps and coaches from the merged history, not from a single chat.
