Start with the question in front of you.
You do not need to understand the whole GLP-1 landscape at once. Body Compass free resources are designed to help you make sense of a specific question, difficult day or early treatment concern without having to search through disconnected advice. Start with the resource that most closely matches where you are now.
New to GLP-1 treatment?
Starting treatment can raise more questions than the prescription answers. Changes in hunger, fullness, eating, hydration, side effects and everyday routines may begin before you feel fully prepared for them.

The Body Compass GLP-1 Starter Kit
A practical introduction to the things worth understanding as you begin navigating treatment. It is designed to help you:
- understand some of the changes you may notice;
- think about nourishment and hydration while appetite is changing;
- recognise questions worth taking back to your healthcare team;
- begin treatment with a broader view than weight alone.
Having a rough day?
When you feel unwell, the next step is not always obvious. Nausea, reflux, constipation, reduced appetite, fatigue or difficulty eating and drinking can turn an ordinary day into a difficult one.

Use the Rough Day Flowchart
The Body Compass Rough Day Flowchart
Designed to help you slow the situation down and work out what deserves attention. It can help you think through:
- what symptom is actually causing the problem;
- whether you are managing food and fluids;
- whether something has recently changed;
- whether the problem is becoming persistent or more severe;
- when the question should move from self-management to your healthcare team.
It is an educational navigation tool, not a diagnostic tool.
Does treatment feel different?
A change in treatment experience does not automatically mean treatment has failed. Appetite may become more noticeable. Food noise may return. Weight loss may slow. The medication may simply feel less dramatic than it did at the beginning.
That can create uncertainty very quickly.
For a deeper exploration of plateaus, adaptation, changing appetite signals and the fear of “resistance,” Body Compass has a dedicated minibook:

When GLP-1 Feels Different
Plateau, Food Noise, Adaptation and the Fear of “Resistance”
A longer-form Body Compass publication exploring what it means when treatment stops feeling as obvious as it once did — and what questions are actually worth asking.

Currently being rebuilt
GLP-1 approvals, formulations, indications, access and prescribing information are changing rapidly. Body Compass is currently rebuilding its medication resources so that they can be:
- clearly dated;
- specific about country and regulatory context;
- easier to update when information changes;
- more explicit about what is known, what has changed and where readers should verify current prescribing information.
New Body Compass Medication Snapshots will be added as they are completed and clinically reviewed.
About these resources
Clear information. A useful starting point. Better questions.
Body Compass resources are designed to help you understand the terrain around GLP-1 treatment. They may help you:
- understand a treatment concept;
- notice changes more clearly;
- prepare questions for your healthcare professional;
- find the next appropriate educational resource;
- distinguish between something you can continue learning about and something that needs clinical assessment.
They are not intended to tell you whether you should start, stop, increase, reduce or change a medication.
Looking for more depth?
Some questions need more than a quick guide. If you want to go further, Body Compass also develops practical guides, tools, books and minibooks exploring the clinical evidence, lived experience and everyday realities of GLP-1 treatment.
New editions are currently being rebuilt.

Coaching & navigation support
Book an introductory conversation
Some people want a more interactive way to work through what comes next.
Body Compass also offers coaching-based navigation support for people who want structured space to reflect on goals, routines, practical barriers and what they want to do next — within clear non-clinical boundaries.
Coaching does not provide diagnosis, prescribing, medication adjustment or individualised medical treatment.
