Wherever the assistant is available you will now be able to use it with Lifesum (English only – for now).TRACKING FOODThis is how it is working:You have the option to track a small, medium or large meal to act as a reminder/placeholder on your phone to which you can add details later.That means that there will be an amount of calories added to your Diary depending on your past tracking habits, and what a small, medium or large meal is for you (based on your personal settings in the app).In order to track food, please say something like "I had a small lunch" or "Add a large dinner"TRACKING WATERIn order to track water, please say something like "Add a glass of water" or "Track 3 glasses of water"TRACKING WEIGHTIn order to track your weight, please say something like "I weigh 75kg" or "Track a weight of 150 pounds".REQUESTING A YOUR STATUSThis means that:1) you will be able to get an update of how you are doing on your way to your goals2) you can get either an overall look, or specifically for weight or caloriesIn order to get status updates say something like "Whats my status?", "How are my calories?" or "What was my last tracked weight?"CHALLENGEGet a challenge/action in order to get your mindset back on your health goalsIn order to get a challenge, please say something like "Give me a challenge" or "Daily action"Common questions:1) Is there a way to specify the calorie amount of food tracked via Google Assistant using small, medium, large meal?Yes!
