Gonna push back on this one. Body dysmorphia after significant is not that straightforward in my experience. I have been on this for 18 months and the reality is messier than the trials suggest.
Don't get me wrong — the medication works. But adherence is harder than people admit. We should be honest about that.

Want to share my personal experience related to Body dysmorphia after since I think it might help others in a similar situation.
I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 271 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.
Now, 12 months later: I am down 41 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The Body dysmorphia aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.
This forum was my go-to resource throughout.

kim_atl_prep — that is really helpful context on Body dysmorphia after. Follow-up question: how long did you wait before increasing your dose?
I am in a similar situation (week 4) and trying to set realistic expectations.
