The Emotional Impact of Rapid Body Change

Being on a weight-loss injection can affect much more than appetite or the number on the scales. When weight changes more quickly than your self-image, the body in the mirror can feel unfamiliar. Positive feelings may sit alongside vulnerability, grief or a sense that your mind has not caught up with your body.

This warm resource explores the emotional side of that experience without judgement. It includes practical reflection, a personal message from Maggie, therapy approaches that may help, book recommendations and guidance on when it may be useful to speak with your prescriber, GP or another professional.
