The best apps to track GLP-1 progress

By the ProgressLens team · Updated November 13, 2026

On a GLP-1, the scale drops quickly. These apps help you see what is changing underneath: fat, muscle and shape.

Short answer

To see whether GLP-1 weight loss is fat or muscle, ProgressLens gives an AI fat vs muscle signal from matched photos and waist, arm and shoulder measurements on iPhone and Android; or use a 3D scanner with lean mass estimates (MeThreeSixty, ZOZOFIT). Keep doses and side effects in your clinic’s app or a dedicated dose tracker.

Disclosure: we make ProgressLens. Details about other apps come from their own store listings and websites as of November 2026; prices and features change, so check the listing before you pay. We name each app’s weaknesses and our own.

Best for: seeing whether you’re losing fat or muscle, privately, on any phone.

Weight on GLP-1 medication drops fast, and the question that follows is how much of it is fat. ProgressLens keeps matched weekly photos and your tape measurements, and its AI report includes a muscle-loss signal: if your arms and shoulders shrink as fast as your waist while weight drops quickly, it flags it. Tell it you’re on a GLP-1 and the report is tailored to that.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if I’m losing muscle on Ozempic or Mounjaro?

Compare two body fat readings taken the same way with the fat vs muscle loss calculator, or watch your arm and shoulder measurements: if they fall about as fast as your waist, you may be losing muscle. Ask your clinician.

What should I track on a GLP-1?

Weekly weight and waist, monthly arms, shoulders and thighs, and matched front and side photos. Doses and side effects belong in your medication tracker.

How much muscle do people lose on GLP-1 drugs?

In trial substudies with DXA scans, roughly 25–40% of weight lost was lean mass, which includes water and organs as well as muscle.
