GraceAZ_72 — that is really helpful context on Body dysmorphia after. Follow-up question: did you change anything about your diet at the same time?

I am in a similar situation (month 2) and trying to set realistic expectations.

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 October 2024 at 251 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 14 months later: I am down 81 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The Body dysmorphia aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This community helped me every step of the way.

Just wanted to say — for anyone reading this Body dysmorphia thread who is feeling discouraged: it gets better. The first few weeks are the hardest. Hang in there. 💪

Subscribing to this thread. Body dysmorphia after is exactly what I've been researching. 🙏
