GLP-1 medications reduce appetite, so your goal is to eat smaller, balanced meals that nourish your body.

Recommended eating style

  • Lean proteins (chicken, fish, eggs)

  • Fiber-rich vegetables

  • Whole grains

  • Healthy fats (avocado, nuts, olive oil)

  • Lots of water

  • Smaller but more intentional meals

Foods that help your stomach feel good

  • Soups

  • Smoothies

  • Oatmeal

  • Yogurt

  • Light proteins (eggs, fish)

Foods to limit (to avoid nausea)

  • Fried foods

  • Heavy creams

  • Large portions

  • High-sugar treats

  • Eating too fast

You do not need to follow a strict diet or count calories, just focus on gentle, balanced eating.
