Protein and Water on a GLP-1
Your protein, fiber and water. One number each, every day.
Eating less is the point of a GLP-1, which makes the things you still need easy to miss. Steady works out a daily protein, fiber and water target from your weight, goal and activity, and shows how close you are.
Targets from your numbers
Protein is anchored to your goal weight, water to your weight today, fiber to your calories.

Questions
How is my protein target worked out?
From the goal weight you enter (or today’s weight, if lower), with limits at both ends. It is a general target, not a prescription; a dietitian can set one for you.
Why track protein, fiber and water on a GLP-1?
Eating less makes all three easy to miss. Protein helps hold on to muscle, fiber helps with constipation, and fluids help avoid dehydration.
How do I get enough protein when my appetite is low?
Many people eat the protein part of a meal first and spread protein across smaller meals. A dietitian can help you plan it.
Should I use my current weight or goal weight for protein?
Steady uses your goal weight, or your current weight if it is lower, so the target stays realistic.
Does Steady log meals?
No. You log protein, fiber and water against daily targets in a tap, not full meals or calories by food.
Can I try the targets before I subscribe?
Yes. The protein, fiber and water calculators on this site use the same method.
Is Steady on iPhone and Android?
Yes. Steady is on the App Store for iPhone and on Google Play for Android.
Is Steady medical advice?
No. Steady records what you log and does arithmetic on it. It does not diagnose, prescribe or recommend a dose, and it is not a substitute for your prescriber or pharmacist.
