Eating disorder history and GLP-1 therapy — my results so far

That is right, and it stops being right at the edges.

This matches mine closely enough to be worth saying so out loud. The detail I would add is minor and it is already implied above.

Coming at MaxMetOK’s question from a different direction. The distinction that resolves most of these threads is between what is true on average and what is true for one person. Both are real; they answer different questions and get quoted as if they were the same one.

One concrete data point for the thread. If you are going to change something, change one thing and give it long enough to express itself. Four weeks is the usual minimum for anything pharmacological on this board, and two weeks of data has told you almost nothing.

Following on from MaxMetOK — and this may be the naive question:

Did your prescriber agree with that reading, and if not what was their objection?

Filing a mild objection. Mild because I might be wrong; an objection because nobody has addressed the case that does not fit. Filing an objection on the n=1 problem. Personal experience is genuine evidence about one person and very weak evidence about anybody else, and this thread keeps promoting the first into the second.
