Anna
Age: 34
Occupation: Psychologist
Persona
Anna tries to listen to herself and maintain a balance in everything she does. She supports trends towards body acceptance and does not fixate on diets and human little weaknesses.
Since she cares about good mood and balance, Anna is concerned about her tendance to stress smoking and excessive addiction to coffee and tries to overcome it.
“I am the one to decide what I can and will do - not a nutritionist and not a program. All I need is a little piece of advice”

Main conclusions
-
The application should be based on the structure of habit tracking applications, but using a flexible system of units inherent in weight loss applications
-
For user motivation, it’s important to keep in mind the psychological methods of introspection used in addictions recovery apps
-
No standards or pressure from the content, all criteria are user-configurable and adapted at each stage

Usability testing
Before
After
Users had to choose 1 of the 2 processes - increase or reduce intake
To create an item card within the process, they were asked to specify current intake
To solve the problem the process of intake change was devided into 2 subprocesses - primary monitoring and subsequent target setting.
This caused difficulties, 2 out of 3 users could not recall the exact values
FAB was modified to add tracking items, not targets
Then, when the item is added, user may choose primary monitoring to find out his intake or go straight to setting a target
