If you’re on a GL🫛 -1, you know… dose increase days = appetite gone
Didn’t hit my protein, just did my best 🤍

When undergoing treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists, like Elara, it’s common to experience appetite suppression, especially on dose increase days. From my experience following a similar health journey, these days can be tough because the usual hunger cues disappear, making it challenging to meet nutritional needs, particularly protein intake. One strategy I've found helpful is to prepare protein-rich snacks in advance—think Greek yogurt, protein shakes, or nuts—that are easy to consume even when appetite wanes. Listening to your body is key; don’t force large meals, but try smaller, frequent portions to keep your energy levels steady. Staying hydrated also plays a crucial role, as sometimes thirst can be mistaken for hunger, and hydration supports overall well-being during medication adjustments. Remember, progress isn’t just about hitting perfect nutrition every day but rather consistent effort and adjustment to your body’s signals. Engaging with communities sharing the #glp1journey and #wljourney hashtags can offer support and encouragement. Sharing experiences fosters motivation and helps overcome hurdles like loss of appetite or missed protein targets. Overall, focusing on ‘progress over perfection’ helps maintain a positive mindset as you navigate the ups and downs of your health journey with GLP-1 treatments.
