Progress Tips
Focus on Trends
Individual data points matter less than the overall direction. Don't get discouraged by a single "bad" weigh-in—look at the bigger picture.
Regular Logging
The more data you log, the more useful your progress charts become. Consistent tracking = better insights.
Celebrate Milestones
Notice when you hit goals or achieve streaks. GLPea helps you see your wins, not just the work ahead.
Common Questions
Why doesn't my chart show anything? You need at least 2-3 data points for charts to display. Keep logging!
Can I compare different time periods? Currently, you can switch between time ranges. Direct comparison features may come in future updates.
My progress seems slow—is that normal? GLP-1 weight loss varies greatly by person. Average is 5-15% of body weight over time. Slow and steady is healthy.
