Just a few meals I ate this week on a GLP-1–

…because “eating less” isn’t the goal…eating smarter is.

No cottage cheese hacks.

No weird ingredients.

Just real food that actually feels good in a midlife body:

🥚 Eggs + sausage + fruit

🍇 Chicken + grapes + broccoli

🌶️ Veggies + avocado + sesame oil

🍎 Apple + Edamame

…nothing fancy, just meals that fuel me and are easy to throw together even when I don’t feel like eating.

If you’re struggling to eat on a GLP-1, try simple foods with minimal prep that fuel you with nutrients! Small portions are fine, but make them fruits and veggies, not packaged foods or protein shakes.

✨ Want help building meals that align with nutrition and not just “protein or calories”?

... Read moreEating healthy on GLP-1 doesn't have to be complicated. This guide focuses on how to select meals that are not only easy to prepare but also packed with essential nutrients. Simple combinations such as eggs, sausage, and fruits, or chicken, grapes, and broccoli, can be both satisfying and nourishing. Incorporate plenty of vegetables, like bell peppers and cucumbers, and healthy fats from avocado to ensure you feel full and fueled. These meals prioritize whole, natural foods over processed options, which can enhance your overall vitality. It’s also important to remember portion sizes; smaller portions of fruits and vegetables are preferable to processed foods or protein shakes. This approach is essential for maintaining a balanced diet while on GLP-1 medications. If you're struggling to create meals that align with your nutritional goals or need guidance, consider reaching out for personalized meal-planning assistance. Engaging with a functional nutrition counselor can provide additional support and strategies tailored to your unique needs.

GLP-1 Dose Increase Week Prep Guide
Moving up a dose? Prep the boring things first. They are usually the things you’ll be glad to have later. Keep easy basics nearby: electrolytes, water, ginger tea, peppermint tea, crackers, broth, Greek yogurt, protein shakes, eggs, berries, cucumber, and small meals that do not feel too heavy.
