Mounjaro meal plan

I’m starting Mounjaro tomorrow, I’m looking for meal/snack ideas whilst on this and or a calorie deficit.

I got mine through the GP so I don’t need advice on the pros and cons as I really have tried everything else. I feel like I hate myself when I see pictures or look in the mirror and I’m disgusted with the size I’ve got to. I have a really active job 4 days a week so exercise is not an issue.

I have a binging disorder so Mounjaro is really my only option, please can people give me ideas for meals and snacks so I can be as prepared as possible.

thank you very much ❤️

I don’t know about other people but for me it’s usually just whatever I can stand to eat. Today I’ve had a packet of chicken. I advise filling your fridge with easy protein and veg and don’t expect to be able to eat any actual meals!

Fibre and protein to start off with. When I first started I lived off protein shakes for when I didn't want to eat but needed calories, bran flakes for fibre and soup because it was easy to eat.

I'm 9 weeks in now and can eat more normally but it may take a bit to get used to the medication. My main side effect the first month was constipation so the bran flakes and also prune juice helped. Month 2 has been fine.

Just eat nutritious and well but small amounts. I favour high protein and low carb.
