Protein and water
Protein Buddy tracks water right beside your protein. Say yes to Track water when setup asks, or tick Water under What to track in Settings, and you get a daily water goal worked out from your body weight and activity. Log a glass from the menu or the calendar, or just tell the assistant. Protein stays the one number on your Home screen, and every day's water adds up in your calendar.
An example day with water switched on: protein leads, and water adds up beside it against a goal of its own.
Say yes to Track water when setup asks, or tick Water under What to track in Settings whenever you like. Your protein goal does not move.
Your water goal starts from your body weight and how active you are, and follows them when they change. Prefer your own number? Type it on Nutrition goals.
Pick a size from a small cup to a full bottle, or type any amount. Every drink lands in the day's Diary in your calendar, right next to your meals.
Protein is the number Protein Buddy is built around, and it keeps the Home screen to itself. Water lives one step away, in the menu, the calendar and the assistant, so it is there the moment you want it and never crowds the number that protects your muscle.
On a GLP-1 medication a smaller appetite makes protein easy to under-eat, and the medication guides also remind you to drink fluids. Protein Buddy keeps both in one place: protein in the ring on your Home screen, water in your calendar, and a goal for each.
Your goal is worked out from your own profile, so there is nothing to guess. The range follows the amounts European and US health authorities give for water from drinks.
Tap Log water in the menu, pick a size and watch the glass fill. Tell the assistant you had a glass of water and it logs it for you, and water mentioned with your lunch goes in on the same card as the meal. Forgot the morning? Add it to any day from the calendar, and swipe a drink to edit or delete it.
Straight answers
Yes. Say yes to Track water in setup, or tick Water under What to track in Settings, and you get a daily water goal worked out from your body weight and activity. Log drinks from the menu, the calendar or the assistant, and see each day's water in your calendar. Protein stays the one number on your Home screen, and water tracking is free.
Yes, Protein Buddy. Protein leads with a personal daily goal, and water sits right beside it with a goal of its own. Log protein by photo, voice, barcode or by hand, log water in a tap or by telling the assistant, and every day's protein and water add up in your calendar.
It depends on your size and how active you are. Protein Buddy starts from about 30 ml per kilogram of body weight, held between 1.5 and 3 liters a day, with a little more if you are active. You can type your own goal whenever you like, and if your clinician has given you a number, use theirs.
Many people do. The medication guides for GLP-1 drugs remind you to drink fluids, and a smaller appetite makes both drinking and eating easy to forget. Protein Buddy keeps protein front and center and water close at hand, each against its own goal. Your prescriber's advice always comes first.
Yes. Tell the assistant you had a glass of water, or how much you drank, and it logs it for you. Mention water along with a meal and one card logs both. Ask how much you have had today and it tells you.
No. Protein is the one number on your Home screen, always. Water has its own tile in your calendar, its own goal, and a place in the menu and the assistant, so it is there when you want it and out of the way when you do not.
