Your first 100 days on a GLP-1: a recordkeeping roadmap
Treat your first 100 days as a season for recording what happened: completed medication history, symptoms, water, protein, weight, movement, and questions. Review the history and bring it to appointments. Your prescriber makes medication decisions; the app does not.
Why use a 100-day frame?
A fixed period makes recordkeeping easier to start and easier to review. The number is an organizational choice, not a prediction about medication response, weight change, side effects, or treatment milestones.
Days 1–14: establish the record
- Choose a day-one date and decide which observations are useful to you and your care team.
- Read the official Instructions for Use for the exact medication and device. Ask the prescribing clinician or pharmacist about anything unclear.
- Record medication events only after they happen, including the date and site actually used. (How to keep a factual site history.)
- Use the same symptom scale each time so entries can be compared without claiming what caused them.
Days 15–42: make entries consistent
Consistency means using the same labels and correcting mistakes. It does not mean completing every field or following a schedule created by the app.
- Verify medication records against what actually happened.
- Record symptoms as observations, not diagnoses or proof of a medication effect.
- Track nutrition, hydration, movement, or weight only at the frequency that is useful and appropriate for you.
Days 43–70: review without guessing
Look for missing or incorrect entries before looking for patterns. A chart can show that two events happened near each other, but it cannot establish cause, diagnose a problem, or tell you to change medication.
Write down questions as they occur. If a symptom is severe, rapidly worsening, or feels like an emergency, use the medication-specific instructions and appropriate clinical or emergency services instead of waiting for an app review.
Days 71–100: prepare a clear handoff
- Review the dates and labels on completed medication records.
- Summarize the symptoms and observations you want to discuss.
- Export or share only the records you intend to send, and review the file before sharing it.
- Bring saved questions to the prescribing clinician. Treatment decisions remain with that clinician.
A weekly record check
Once a week, confirm that entries are accurate, delete duplicates, correct mistakes, and add questions for the care team. Do not turn a streak, countdown, reminder, or chart pattern into medication instruction.
How GLP 100 helps
GLP 100 counts the days and marks milestones. It stores completed medication history, wellness check-ins, food and protein, movement, and weight. Records are stored locally by default. Food lookup sends the barcode or search text you submit, and a user-started full export can include records and progress photos.
