How it works
A few quick choices. One plan that actually fits your life.
Pick a clear goal
Choose what you want (lose fat, build muscle, or stay steady). Buo uses that single decision to prioritize calories, workouts, and progress targets so you don’t waste time guessing.
Choose your campus (we’ll target your dining halls)
Tell Buo where you go to school. We match meals and available options to your dining halls so the plan is realistic and actually doable on campus.
Tell us what you avoid or are allergic to
Pick common restrictions or add your own. Buo automatically excludes those ingredients from menus and swaps in safe alternatives — no manual filtering, no surprises.
