Imi vs Shotsy: the food on a GLP-1, or the shot itself
Shotsy is best for people on a GLP-1 who want a dedicated medication tracker: injections and pills, schedules and reminders, injection sites and estimated medication level charts. Imi is best for people on a GLP-1 who want their food planned, with smaller protein-first meals and gentler days after a dose, alongside simpler dose tracking.
