Hungry Today Help !!!!!

[Ragdollmummy1977]

I am due my third 2.5 mounjaro on Tuesday but today I am finding myself so hungry and lots and lots of food noise. I am putting this down to having a bottle of wine last night. (Will not be happening again ) I really want to just eat loads and I don’t know what to do to curb it. I am just hoping it’s down to the wine and tomorrow will be better as today I am really struggling. Any advice on some low cal quick snacks ?

I find something like weetabix or protein based really helps. Lots of water too. Good luck. It's hard but hopefully stabilising your blood sugar will help

If your hungry then eat. Protein and vegetables and little fat.

What have you eaten today?

Water yes. Fight going OTT but write yesterday and today off. Things happen. Drinking adds confusion and best avoided or made occasional, in my view.

I had fruit and yogurt for breakfast
home made soup for lunch
A carrot
Apple
tangerine
raspberries

just so hungry I am planning on salmon and veg for dinner. But nothing is filling me today 😤

It's ok to take a day off. Weight loss is a long old haul even with wlis and you have to be kind to yourself

I need to eat 3 meals a day with protein. I would be starving too which what you’ve eaten.

You have had a lot of carbs and sugar today but very little protein. One salmon fillet won’t get you anywhere near the protein level that you should be aiming for on a daily basis (0.7-1g per kg of body weight). See this as an opportunity to take on nutritious foods that are hard to get in on high suppression days.

Scrambled egg or beans on toast (warburtons small wholemeal bread at 55 kcals a slice) always hits the spot with me ... and loads of water.

Thank you so have any examples of what I should eat or could eat then. I will have the two salmon fillets I think as I am very hungry

Well, I don’t know what’s in your cupboards / fridge but based on what’s in mine: eggs, bacon, beans, tuna, cottage cheese, protein bagels?

I have all these thank you again

Try to limit carbs, it causes insulin spikes and is mostly stored as fat. The more you eat, the more you will crave too. Stick to protein and veg and lots of water. Wine is around 700 cals a bottle and is full of sugar, imagine how much food you could have for that.

Mounjaro has a half life of 5 days so it's probably normal to feel hungry today. If 2.5mg wears off within a few days then it might be time to move up soon
