I am trying to eat more at lunch time and less at dinner time but it worked a bit too well. It was 48 hrs after injecting though, which is the beginning of peak suppression for me. Haven't eaten today yet and probably won't until lunchtime.

I've found it incredibly hard too when I'm out the house and have to eat- particularly in cafes etc everything is cake pastry or very carb heavy!

Soup did the trick. Thanks. Sounds obvious but I hadn't considered that.

Week 6, 5mg

B: decaf black coffee

L: chicken with garlicky chickpeas and tomatoes, cheese and crackers

D: bowl of Greek yogurt, kiwi, handful of peanuts

Good morning. New to this but not new to 'dieting'! Took my first dose yesterday. Been looking through this thread for ideas. I would be so grateful for information on supplements - been reading about clear whey and never heard of it. Also no idea about electrolytes. I know everyone must be busy so if there is a thread about supplements and protein products that would be great to know about. All very best to everyone and have a great day 😀

L: Tuna Niçoise salad; Mango
D: Lemon sole, tomatoes; cheese scone with butter, olives
S: Chicken, protein shake

Iced latte x 2, water, electrolytes, 0% ABV cocktail

@Azuresky68 welcome! I not sure there is a specific thread but supplements etc are discussed in the main threads on numerous occasions.
To me, the objective is to eat as 'clean' as possible with a focus on protein.
I take biotin for my hair and nails, marine collagen for skin, magnesium for sleep, JointAce Max for my knees and Lion's Mane for focus. Was taking all of these prior to MJ but have added psyllium husks in an attempt to keep things moving😬
I do use a clear whey to help boost my protein and asked around the threads to find one that wasn't full of artificial sweeteners. The best I could find was Vilgain which only has stevia in it - the best I could do!

Yesterday - week 10 5mg dose 6 day 2

B: scrambled egg, asparagus, feta. Green tea with collagen
D: EasyJet's attempt at a ploughman's in a box

Thank god for MJ as there was a 12 hour gap between flights due to a nightmare of a flight!!

Usual supplements, not enough water😩😩

B: decaf black coffee

L: chicken with red lentils and coconut, square of dark choc

D: 3 egg omelette with coriander, garlic, ginger, chilli and lemon plus some more chicken, handful of peanuts after

S: Trek protein bar

One thing I struggle with is how much to eat - I am getting really good suppression and could go all day without eating, but that would obviously not be a good idea. It's finding that line between listening to what your body seems to want and eating enough to keep going. I don't want to starve myself as I can't imagine it will do my metabolism any good in the long term.

Eg today (see below) mg tracker reckons I have had about 1100 calories yet I feel like a bit uncomfortable and over full. Should I be eating as much as I feel like eating (ie much less) or should I be struggling to get to 1000 calories every day?
