  I've been on Mounjaro for three weeks and have lost 12 pounds so far.  I haven't found anything I can't eat, including fish and chips which we had today.  I'm just eating less of everything and trying to focus on protein and fibre . I'm averaging 1400 to 1800 calories per day, no nausea, no diarrhea, no constipation. Im still on 2.5mg.

  First day was a pot roast with potatoes, carrots and a light gravy. Wow 😕. Second week was too much salad and fruit at one sitting. 🤢🤮. Slow learner here but it’s week 4 and finally getting the hang of it. 😅

  The reason I love my GLP1 is exactly because I don’t have to avoid ANY foods.  Had this very discussion with a friend yesterday who is on keto.  After a meal out she was stressing over the fact she’d had a piece of corn bread and was trying to justify it to herself.  I’d been trying to convince her to try a GLP1 because you’re never on an actual diet.  You want cornbread?  Have a piece.  You want fried chicken?  Have some.  The fact is you just won’t want to over-indulge (at least that’s been my experience).  The fricken “food noise” just isn’t there any more.  For the first time in 70 years I finally have a somewhat “normal” relationship with food.  The alleviation of that stress alone is a bloody miracle.

  I’m using Ozempic to control glucose level and also helps with dropping weight.  And yes that greasy food is a thing of my past. Upset stomach, loose stools. Gotta watch it.  Greek yogurt with fruits & bananas is my comfort food. Works great. Also vegetables and smaller portions of meat work good for me as well. I’ve dropped 21 lbs in 6 months. Thank you for ur advice will help me to make even better choices in this new life style I’m embarking on.

  On mounjoro,  In a day I drink  a protein shake, then in small portions i eat whole wheat toast,  boiled egg, avocado,  and cottage cheese. Whole wheat keto wrap or lettuce wrap with turkey and mustard, non fat Greek yogurt with fiber one cereal in it, occasionally I eat fiber one bars or fruits "berries" and nuts "sliced almonds"

  Mounjaro is the best med ever! Sugar levels down 50% (180 fasting to around 90 now)  and 6lbs down with 1st 2 shots of 2.5! Best decision of my life.

  I’ve been using shredded salads with kale, broccoli, carrots in small portions with either salmon or tuna packets and a dressing. I’ve also had daily Chinese hot and sour soup with additional tofu added to up protein. The spice level hasn’t bothered me at all. Chobani 30 G protein shakes are my morning breakfast, brunch meal with a few strawberries 🍓. I’ve been on Zepbound for 5 weeks and the weight is just melting off without any side effects. I automatically avoiding most of these foods intuitively.

  I take a compounded tripeptide, and I have no issues with food. I eat and drink what I want; I can't overeat. Talk to your doctor. I am down 63 pounds, now at 58, and I feel amazing.  At least talk to your doctor; I highly recommend it.

  i have been on wegovy for 2 months. after initial loss of 10 pounds the first week, i never lost another ounce. i confessed to dr i was eating ice cream every night . she said cut it out and i immediately started losing again. conclusion: creamy sugary things can prevent weight loss no mater how little you eat

  Lost my appetite, so none of those foods apply. I even found out Doc is pretty permissive in her replacment list. :)<br>Instead, I focus on high-protein foods like ham, sausage, cheese, cottage cheese, protein bread, eggs, skyr, high-protein yogurt, plus 2 liters of water a day.<br>I was surprised how easy it was to reach 100g of protein without supplements (though I keep a bag of whey as a backup).<br>I also use AI for a midday reality check on my daily protein intake.<br>The first days after the first GLP-1 dose are rough, but Doc made me realize it&apos;s basically a sudden shock and adaptation process for the body. So patience is the order of the day.<br><br>Thanks, Doc!
