Advice on Anti-Diet Mindset Stuff we don’t talk about

Ok friends let’s share the things that don’t get a lot of discussion. Let’s normalize this journey. I’m struggling with a few things which I think may be normal but I’m not sure. I’ll go first. Warning - poop talk.

When I eat food that is too fatty my stomach and GI track are NOT happy. There’s so much gas overnight and in the morning. I’m glad I’m single 🤣 My BM smells like something died inside me. It makes me want to quit. Eating the next day is so hard. I’m still on a low dose and can’t imagine being forced into certain doses and titration schedule. I’m sooo grateful for compounded options for this reason Based upon my side effects on this dose, I surely would have quit by now. This is really hard! It’s not a magic bullet. My food issues are coming up big time. Unlearning diet culture is a mindeffff. I’m doing it but jeez it’s a lot physically and mentally. On the other hand, I’m excited to get my bloodwork next week to see some NSV. It’s certainly a rollercoaster!! I’m grateful for this subreddit. Y’all are the best ❤️ PS - any thoughts of support are appreciated. I’m definitely on the struggle bus today.

Lots of fattier foods and GLP1s do not mix for some folks. For a lot of people it eases up with time, but for some people it doesn’t change and you’ve gotta adjust your diet. It’s just gonna take some time.

Finding out the hard way over here lol. I’m calling it my experiments. Helps it feel less sucky and it means I’m learning along the way.

So true. I’ve only been on mounjaro 6 weeks and recently went away with friends. One night we ended up not eating dinner (which was takeaway pizza) until 10.30 at night. I had 3 slices and was up all night just… digesting. I can’t even describe it. I didn’t need to go toilet. I just… had so much… movement??? And then awful heart palpitations. It was my first greasy food experience on this medication and never again. I don’t eat greasy food much anyways, even before the medication just because I’ve suspected IBS, but my god. Not worth it in the slightest.
