Extreme food aversion

2 replies

Please help. I've been on Mounjaro 2.5 for just over 2 weeks. I'm having extreme food aversion, nothing and I mean absolutely nothing appeals. I feel exactly the same as I did during my early pregnancy where even the smell of roast chicken, coffee etc is making me want to wretch. I am forcing myself to eat, focussing on protein and drinking water but my god it's literally killed my appetite. It does wear off towards the end of the week but I know for a fact I'm not getting my TDEE of 13,000 calories. I'm supplementing with protein shakes too. Anyone have any tips please?

I've been having meal replacement shakes such as yfood and huel. They are much easier to stomach than solid food (particular yfood) and I know they are reasonable healthy, well rounded and full of vitamins.

I found it eased off after 3-4 weeks to a more comfortable level. Try to eat what you can, calorie dense foods. I ate a lot of mixed nuts to get the calories in.
